half missing three top
We started each half missing a wide-open lay-up, and that kind of set the tone. My top three scorers couldn't find the basket.
coming compete good high kids learn seniors system time
We have a lot of good kids that keep coming through (Kentwood). But I like to think that our system has something to do with it too. These kids come in young and they learn how to compete at a high level. And by the time they are seniors they do just that.
covered great guy
We had it covered pretty well. The guy made a great play.
hopefully learn learned
Like we always say, sometimes you learn more in losses, so hopefully we learned our lessons.
gifted kids lead learn run talented
We need to learn to run better offense. The kids are talented and gifted but we need to learn to play more unified. We do what we need to do to get the lead and we kind of stop.
athletic biggest games met team win
We can't just show up and win games because we're more athletic. We met a team as athletic in a lot of ways. We've got to execute, that's the biggest thing.
battle round survived
We survived round one, and now we've got to go do battle with another heavyweight team.
business happen kids playing whether
We told the kids it's life. Things always don't happen the way you want them to whether you're in business or playing sports.
fabulous hard work
He's a fabulous shooter. We'll try to make him work hard for his shots.

Obviously, the game changes without him. We had a very nice first half and then we had to kind of patch it together.
award coaches deserving good humbling win
It's very humbling to win this award again. There are so many good coaches out there in all of the sports. There are a lot of deserving people.

They attack the basket and rebound so hard. They are tough and it was a tough game.
ball finish good guys players post quality solid
They've to two good quality post players who are real fundamental and solid kids. They know how to get them the ball and those guys finish well.
again chance good learn
We know we'll probably see them again (at state) and there's a good chance we'll see Curtis again. We always try to learn from our losses. Hopefully, we'll make the adjustments we need.
