adversity far games handled kids pleased wins worked year
We have a lot of kids back. What they accomplished this year with 14 wins was far, far better than I had ever dreamed. I thought they worked through some adversity. Most games we went into I thought we were the underdog, and I was very pleased with how they handled themselves.

We've got eight games under our belt now. That stuff is done with. They've been in the arena long enough now that we shouldn't have those mistakes.

Keys to the game were our pressure defense and our transition offense. We came out really intense and got the game rolling right off the bat.

He really had a good game. I was very stunned I guess. I knew he was a good athlete, but he really stepped up and had a good game for them.
beat chance fight game kids last lead loss ourselves played poor possession redeem tonight took tough
The last game we didn't have Meier and we played a poor first half. We had to fight back and took a two-point lead and got beat on a last-second possession and that was a tough loss for us. Tonight we had a chance to redeem ourselves and the kids did.
early gone toward year
Early in the year we would have been fouling in that situation. Toward the end of the year we've gone away from that.
adversity kids life proud rise strikes tonight
Sometimes when adversity strikes in your life or in your sport, you have to rise to the occasion. I thought our kids did that tonight and I'm very proud of them for that.

I was really glad to see him have a breakout game. He's a good shooter and a good basketball player.
against beat kids playing pulling
Most kids don't take (the rivalry) too far. They want to beat one another obviously, but often times they are probably pulling for each other if they aren't playing against each other.
ball extremely nights shot
We had one of those nights where we shot the ball extremely well.
apart beat execute execution fell needed threw trap
We just fell apart on execution. They threw a little trap on us and we did not execute. We got beat by a better team. That's all there is to it. We didn't execute the way we needed to execute, and they were better.
basketball kids program reflects trying win
When you get 400 wins, it reflects the kids you've had in the past, it reflects the parents, it reflects the program itself, the coaches. We're just trying to win a basketball game. If it happens, it happens. If it doesn't, it doesn't.
competitor leave
It should hurt. If you are a competitor and you give everything you have, it's going to hurt. It always does. If it doesn't, then you didn't do much, you didn't leave it on the floor.
ball effort hit outside rebounds shared team
It was a team effort on the rebounds and I thought we shared the ball much better. We got the ball inside, we hit some outside shots.
