attack good kid kids press reads team teams tough
We're a pretty tough team to press with a kid like Jamie. If teams are going to press us, we want to attack and make them pay. I thought all our kids made good reads off their press.
brought coach group happen high intensity kid lady last lifted next opportunity state teams ten
For me to have that opportunity to coach a young lady that talented, that doesn't happen very often. When you have a kid that's going to play in the Big Ten next year, with that comes high expectations for the team. She brought high intensity to a group that was already pretty intense, and lifted our play to where we were one of the better teams in state over last two years.
buck credit faces job kids
I give the kids a lot of credit because when we went to overtime, we had some long faces in the huddle. For them to come out, buck up, and get the job done, that was just huge.
fighting fights-and-fighting gonna kids proud
I'm proud of my kids for fighting back to win. We're gonna take it and get after it on Thursday.
begin heads lead lost needed quarter second settled talked
We talked about one of the things we needed to do was getting out to a lead. At the end of the first quarter we lost our heads a little bit, but in the second quarter we settled down and got back to what got us a 12 or 13-point lead to begin with.
board hard low roll seconds stack
We just said, 'Let's stack it up, get it in, go 1-4 low and with about 10 seconds left, let's go hard to the hole. And we did. We got what we wanted out of it. The roll I thought was going to go in. She used the board well, but it just rolled out.
advantage almost fine life matter taking top
We just wanted another opportunity. Know it's just a matter of us taking advantage of that opportunity. There's not too many times in life where you get, almost like, a do-over. Chippewa is the top dog, and we're the underdog. That's fine with us.
defensive effort eight eventually six somebody step time within work
Every time they got it within six or eight points, somebody would step up. They really made us work hard, but our defensive effort eventually got us the win.
almost felt hit looked three tied time
Every time I looked I up I felt like we were down three or down four. We'd get it almost tied and they'd hit a three-point play or something.
defensive effort four good happy overall solid
I was pretty happy with a good solid effort for four quarters. There are things we have to keep working on and keep improving. We could do better on the defensive end but overall I'm happy with their performance.
ball crazy difficult good job needed possible worked
We needed to do a real good job making it as difficult as possible on their posts getting the ball. Our posts worked like crazy not to let them get the ball inside.
ability ball dribble either open
She was great. She has the ability to dribble like she does and either take the ball to the basket, or when someone is in her way, still find the open person under the basket.
added confidence dealt knowing lady needs played points pressure role score throughout
She's played with so much confidence throughout the year. With that role comes added pressure and she's dealt with all that knowing that she needs to score 20 points for us to be successful. That's lot for a young lady to handle, but she's done it really, really well.
early found game girls proud took win
You have to give Rapids a lot of credit, they took us out of everything we like to do. Early on they were disciplined and did what they wanted and we struggled. I'm proud of the way the girls battled and found a way to win a game we shouldn't have won.
