games strike throw walk wild win
When you walk 10 guys, you're not going to win too many games. (Brock) was just wild and didn't throw any strikes. He just couldn't find the strike zone.
good job proud shows win
I thought we pitched well. Offensively, we didn't do as good a job as we needed, but we were proud to come back and get a win like that after Saturday. That shows a lot of character.
carried hoping leads win
We have had leads before but they usually got away. We carried it through tonight. Obviously, we're hoping a win like this will give us some momentum.
both care chance win
We've got a chance (to win the league), but we just have to take care of our own business. We want to win both games, but we only need one.
ask control early league position talked week whether win
We talked early in the week about getting back into a position where we have everything back in our own hands. Now, we have control over whether or not we win the league and that's all you can ask for.
anyone mistakes offense pitching win worried
We're not worried about anyone else. We better be worried about ourselves. We're making enough mistakes of our own. Our pitching and offense have to really get better to win in this conference.
adversity consider definitely effort four frustrated hard kids played proud season wins
I am definitely proud of the effort these kids are giving. They played hard for four quarters. The effort has been there all season and when you consider how very frustrated they have been through the adversity in wins and losses, you have to be impressed. I can't say enough about their effort.
built case defense early east fall hard hole lead offensive played
When we fall into an early hole the way we did tonight, we sometimes come back and play really hard defensively. That wasn't really the case tonight. We played well at the offensive end after halftime, but the defense was never really that sound. That early lead Oswego East built just was more than we could overcome.
against ball guys inside loosen work
With us going 6-0, 6-0 against their inside guys at 6-6 and 6-5, we couldn't work the ball inside to loosen things up outside.
higher last level pick played team
We really haven't played well in the last week. We need to pick it up to a higher level (this weekend). But this team is that way and I think they'll do that.
entering gave good job lead maintain needed second
Sure, we'd like to make them all, or at least make more than we are. Nevertheless, we made some big ones when we needed to. We did a good job defensively and we were able to maintain a lead. When we still had a lead entering the second half, that gave us some confidence.
forms generally information necessary page people submit web
We'll also have it set up with all the necessary forms to submit your film online, and generally have the Web page be a better way for people to get information about the festival.
arms best challenge city draft eight guys lake picks throw
Lake City probably has the best arms in the state. They've got the most draft picks and the most prospects; they've got eight guys who can throw up into the 90s, so it's going to be a real challenge for us.
decent forcing knock looks
I thought that in the first half, we were getting decent looks at the basket. It wasn't like we were forcing shots. We just couldn't knock them down.
