It was a total team effort. These kids got everything they deserve.
face league match nice team tough week
It was a tough week psychologically, so it was nice to face a team that we match up well against. But from now on, it's going to be a dogfight each week. This league is awfully tough again.

They are a scrappy team that likes to penetrate. We'll have to box out and rebound better.

Right now the district tournament comes through Ellensburg. We have as good a shot as any team to win the tournament.

My only goal is to play 162 games and help this team win. If I can do that, everything will take care of itself.
team player people
I was disappointed in everything - my start and the team's start. People got down on me, but I never got down on myself. I still believed I could be the type of player everyone, including me, thought I was going to be.
late missed
We missed some one-and-ones late in the game. Then they made some big baskets.

It was very short on specifics, and lacked any new initiatives. It just seemed like an effort to rally the country.

There was a five-point swing at the end of the third that gave them momentum.

Our defense has kept us in every game we've played this year. I knew we'd come out and play hard.

Every game in this league is a hard fought battle. We wanted to play physical and take it to them. Selah wanted to play physical and take it to us. I say let's go at it.
