good job proud takes win
Offensively, I don't know where we were today. Defensively, we did a pretty good job and I'm proud of that. It wasn't pretty, it was pretty ugly, but that's what it takes to win sometimes.
draw great season whatever win
Ballgame? What a ballgame. We didn't draw it up like that, but we will take this. A great win for us, and it has been one thing after another all season long. It has been a grind-it-out kind of season for us, and we'll take whatever comes next.
contend goal reach state title win
Our goal is to win the state championship. That is the goal, and as a program, we've said that we want to contend for the state title every year. We know what we need to do to reach that goal, and it's about perseverance.
earn playing slump time took type win
That midseason, end-of-season type of slump we had, we kind of took that time off. But now we've come back from that and we're playing hard, and we had to earn this win tonight.
eight everybody kids matter matters start team telling wants
Right now, we have about eight kids who could say they're the person to start or be in the game. Sure, everybody wants to start, but I keep telling them to play team basketball. It doesn't matter who starts, it matters who finishes. That's what I would want to do.
came defensive earlier found great herself less playing proud scoring thinking
That was big and that's what Camille can do. She's a great defensive player. Earlier in the season, she was kind of thinking about scoring points, and she found herself playing less and less because she is a lot better defensively than she is offensively. But she came in today, did what she does best, and I'm proud of her for that.
free shot tremendous
That was just heart. We wanted it today. That was tremendous the way we shot free throws.
came points score trying
We came out trying to score 20 points in one possession. They were trying to get everything right away, trying to do too much too fast.
asked best career days goes injuries kid playing plays time
Nikki is a kid who has battled injuries her whole playing career here. She has never been like, 'I've got to take time off. I've got to be a starter.' Exactly. She just goes in and does what is asked of her, plays and has fun, and I think her best playing days are ahead.
free throws
Make free throws. I told the girls, 'Let's make some free throws and don't foul.' That's how I felt. Let's make those free throws, and B.T. and Miranda made two of them. Not just one of them, but two of them, and that was great.
coming gain knowing lose mental start talk tough toughest
When you get hurt, you start to lose out knowing how to play the game. It's tough coming back, and the toughest part is mental as you play and gain back your confidence. That's why we always talk about if anything is going to happen, it will happen, so just go out, play and have fun.
next won
This was our year. We should have won it this year. We'll get it next year.

There hasn't been a night where he has not showed up and put it on the line for me, even in the games we lost. He's always a positive kid and an emotional leader for us, too.
