bit came early intensity picked
We picked up the intensity a little bit after halftime. We came out and were lackadaisical and very sloppy, I guess, early on.
job
We did a much better job defensively this time.
bit covering good job keeping press rhythm
We did a good job while we were scrambling a little bit on the press of getting back and covering their shooters, and keeping them out of a rhythm because they can go off on you at any time.
ball couple defense extra four good job quick three time took
We did a good job of making the extra pass. ...We rotated the ball with two, three or four passes. The first time (on Jan. 9) we took quick shots. We didn't make them play defense long enough. Tonight, they had to play defense more than just a couple of seconds.
created defense help pressure
We really didn't play well on offense. With our help on defense and our pressure we created a lot of havoc.
beat conference gotten hunt won
Obviously, you want to beat a cross-town team. But (what's more important) is that we're still in the hunt for the conference championship. If we'd of gotten beat tonight, there would have been no way we could have won our conference.
conference hope knock realistic shot somebody win winning
Now, we have to win out and hope somebody else can knock off Elmwood. We have a realistic shot at winning the conference championship.
ball came great looked miss press second took turn
Oakdale looked great in the first quarter. They came out and didn't miss a shot. But once we were able to set our press up, we made them turn the ball over. The press took over in the second quarter.
ball challenge cover high home junior playing seems shoots trying
Playing at Southwest is always difficult. Southwest always seems to play well on their home floor. Southwest shoots the ball unbelievably well for a junior high team. It will be a challenge trying to cover all of their shooters.
great hitting job outside pressure sure tonight
Stephen Still did a great job for us tonight hitting outside shots. That sure relieves a lot of pressure off our big men.
guys light team total
We've got to have contributions all over to be successful. We've got one or two guys who can light up the scoreboard. But for us to be successful, we've got to have a total team effort.
chance good job needs
Jacob is a good, young kid. He's got a chance to be real good for us. ...He needs to get a little tougher, and little more physical, but he does a good job with the ball.
bit face
We got up in their face a little bit and started to get on a roll.
front gets nobody stepped
When he gets the rebound, it's going the other way quick. Nobody stepped in front so he got all the way down to the goal.
