ball came couple good knocked looks shot
We came out and shot the ball like we can. We've done it a couple of times this year, but I thought we had a lot of good looks and we knocked a lot of them down tonight.
came state win
We came here for one reason. To win a state championship.
came gave heck lucky played
It was one heck of a game. Puxico came out and played their butts off. They gave us everything they had and we were lucky enough to come out on top.
came created figured guard guy hit jeff left numbers team until void willing
The big guy (Bogan) came in and D.D. (Gillespie) left and that kind of created a void at the guard spot. Jeff was willing to let his numbers take a hit for a while until he figured everything out and the team figured everything out.
best came credit exactly extremely game great played sign
I want to give Verona credit, they came out and played extremely well. I think that's a sign of what a great team's about. We weren't exactly on our game and they played their best game, and we still came away with a 10-point win.
ball came guarded looked played push successful
I thought we came out and played hard; we guarded well and got the ball down the floor. We really looked to push the ball a lot more, and I thought we were successful in doing that.
ball came court fairly guarded help night ran
I thought we came out and did the little fundamental things that help you win. We jumped the ball on defense, rebounded, guarded the ball pretty well most of the night and ran the court fairly well.
came early jeff
Jeff really came out early and got us going.
breaks came good guys heart jackson jump love maybe roaring seat seemed stopped teams
Our guys are tough. They got a lot of heart. I love the way we play. We didn't give up. We came roaring back and I thought we were maybe going to jump in the driver's seat for a minute. Jackson stopped that. Tonight, it just seemed like the breaks went their way, but good teams make their breaks and they made some tonight. They put it on us.
came defensive game huge introduced job learner offensive park phenomenal quick speaks strides stuff team time volumes year
He made huge strides this year. His footwork came a long way. His sense of a team game came a long way. You can play in the park all day long and not think about defensive positioning or offensive spacing. All that stuff was introduced to Will for the first time this year and I thought he did a phenomenal job of grasping those concepts. He's quick learner and that really speaks volumes for him.
night stay took tried
We tried to stay with him all night. I thought every 3-pointer they took was contested.
couple missed turned
We turned it over a couple times when we shouldn't have, and we missed some shots.
far flow half strength
We didn't have the flow we wanted the first half as far as getting up the floor, that's a strength of our team. But we still persevered.
couple days knew last nervous
I've been a nervous wreck, to be honest, these last couple of days up here. But I knew once the tip-off came, I'd be fine.
