came changed close couple few incredible job keeps kids man mickey mouse quite steals team trapped traveling year zone
I think our kids did an incredible job (defensively). We were a man (to-man) team all year and we came out in a Mickey Mouse zone and it keeps us in there. Then a few possessions there we changed the zone and trapped out of it. We got a couple steals and came real close to get some traveling calls. But we couldn't quite get things done.

ball falling impressed shoot
I'm impressed with how well they're playing. They're quick, they shoot the ball well and they press. They play full-court for 32 minutes. If things are falling for them they're especially tough.

Kyle has really been working hard in the workouts and he's been running with the seniors, which is good.
few found looks start third zone
I thought we found the seams in the zone better at the start of the third quarter, and then we made some shots. In the first half, we had a few looks but didn't make the shots.
basketball came defense good held kids played quarter reckoned rest team third three
I thought our kids really came out and played well. I thought the third quarter was the difference. We held them to three points. The kids' team defense was so much better. They're a good basketball team and they're going to be reckoned with the rest of the way.
defense felt hard looked numbers options push run
We had two options on that play. We were going to push it and see if we could find numbers and if we looked like we had a seam we were going to go play. I felt like if they had their defense set it was going to be hard for us to take a timeout and try to run something set.
ball good great hurt past pressure seemed shots tradition tremendous turned wave
Tremendous ball pressure, good denial. It's just a great tradition up there. It hurt us. Then it seemed like when we got past that wave of pressure we turned the ball over. We had more turnovers than shots in the first half.
beginning best capable improves knock last low minute season time wants year
Derek's time at the beginning of last season was around 22 minutes, but by the end of the year he was in the low 18's. He wants to knock another minute off that this year. If he improves on his sprinting, I think he's capable of that. By the time he's a senior, he could be one of the best in the league.
