ball brought games played style successful time year
We've played 31 ball games and, at this time of the year, you can't change. You have to go with what brought you and play with the style that's been successful for you all year long.
ball close couple cut good looks roll top
We still had some opportunities, but I thought that there were a couple times when we cut it close and we had some good looks at it, but the ball just didn't roll in. We got close to the mountain, but we couldn't get on top of it.
ask ball bit club difference last offense patient people step
People always ask me what the difference is between last year's club and this year's and this year's we have other people that can step up. We are a little more patient on offense and we can get other people the ball a little bit better.
attacking ball excellent job shot shots
I thought they shot the ball unbelievably in the first half. They got the shots they wanted to and really did an excellent job of attacking the basket.
ball compared good impressed key last move patience wait willing year
I think our patience has been the big key for us this year. Compared to last year and some other years, our patience has really, really impressed me this season. We're willing to move the ball around and wait for that good shot.
both change expect familiar good point sure surprises
I'm sure it's a good thing for both of us because we're both pretty familiar with what we do and, when you get to this point of the year, you don't change anything. We're both pretty familiar with each other and I don't expect too many surprises and I'm sure they won't get any surprises from us because we'll do the same things we've done all year.
credit
That has to be credit to our girls.
bit early girls great progress slow soccer team
It was great for our girls' soccer team to do so well, but it did slow our team's progress a little bit early in the season.
thinking
We weren't thinking about it too much. We just have to go out and play. You have to play well to advance.
attack half hit looking pleased pressure quarter
They were looking to pressure us and they were looking to attack us offensively. The thing that they did really well in the first half was hit their shots, so I was really pleased (near) the end of the first quarter to be tied.
cut driving four good job looking people saw soon three
They were doing a good job on her so that she couldn't get a good look or a good driving lane. They knew, as soon as she got the ball, I saw there were three or four people around her looking to cut off the driving lanes.
ashley bench good ink maggie people performed players playoffs season three tournament win
Ashley and Maggie (Gibson) get a lot of the ink and the publicity, but there are other people that have performed well in the playoffs and all season for us. You're not going to win in the tournament with two or three good players. You need to have more players and you need to have a bench if you want to advance.
came far matter monkey played step
No matter how far you go in anything, you have to take that first step and, sometimes, that first step can be a big one. They hadn't played for two weeks, but there's no monkey on their back ... and they came in really relaxed.
across against best enjoy fantastic focus maybe memory next states teams tournament weekend
The states is a different tournament, and we have to enjoy this (through the weekend and) maybe Monday, but we'll get back to our focus on the next step. This is great, and this is fantastic for these girls, and it's a memory they'll have their whole lives, and then you look at the states, and you look at that as a whole other tournament where you're going against the best teams from across the state of Pennsylvania.
