electricity last school year
You can feel the electricity in the school and the community. I feel it more this year than last year. The way we're playing, I like our chances.
ball handling needed offense pressure
We needed more offense from Cory and he'll do better away from the pressure of handling the ball all the time.
against business care chance looking ourselves
We need to take care of business against Wakefield to give ourselves a chance in the final. We can't be looking ahead.
defense good help last night rest
We've been getting good defense from the rest of them, but last night we got the 9s, 7s and 5s in the scorebook that really help us offensively.
bonded enjoy last lose time together
We've bonded together as a team. They enjoy being around each other. This time always hurts. You lose that last game. For seniors, especially at this stage, it hurts.
brought focused great group men program seniors shows
These seniors have really brought the program to a new level. We've got a great group of young men here who are focused and working as a team, and it shows in the results.
believe confident guys man playing sights
I'm confident we can play with them the way we're playing our man defense. These guys have got their sights set on getting to that Kohl Center. They really believe it.
basketball both came effort ends good job kids playing springs
It was a good all-around effort for our kids. Solon Springs came in here playing good basketball and our kids did a really good job on both ends of the floor.
emotions expect homecoming
It's homecoming and I expect us to play with a lot of emotion.
athletic
They're solid. They've got thick, physical, athletic kids.
balance expect nice three underneath
They're our big three and that's what we need and expect from them. We had some nice balance underneath and we're going to need more of that as we go.
beneficial crunch gotten lead left nine obvious rotation
They called that timeout, and we just didn't have anything left at crunch time. It was obvious to see their rotation of nine (players) was more beneficial than our rotation of six. We didn't have anything left. If we could've gotten the lead at crunch time, they would have had a different look in their eyes.
battle seed
It's a battle for the No. 2 seed in the regional.
hurts
They didn't outwork us, they didn't outplay us. That's what hurts so much.
