care games move position
Right now we're in position where we can make a significant move in the standings. So we just need to take care of our business, take care of the games we can control.
afford dropped game gift lose wrapped
We gift wrapped this game and they dropped it. We can't afford to play like this (tomorrow) or we'll lose by 40.
finished game past
We finished the game. We hadn't finished the game the past four.
discussion game issue practice ready road
We've never made (playing on the road) a big deal, so it's never become an issue with the kids. There's no discussion about where we're playing. It's just a road game and we just go to practice and get ready to play.
bunch came chance deal desire five games last pull six together tonight win
We've been down before at the half, so it wasn't a big deal to us. Five of our last six games we've had a chance to win and didn't have the desire to pull it out. We were a bunch of individuals, but tonight we came together and were able to pull out a win.
both game games last saturday tied win
It's going to be an important game for us. I think if we can get the win on Saturday we'll still probably be tied and I think it will come down to our last two games for both teams.
adjust came conference continuity game hard played second team
They were a completely different team than when they came to see us. It's hard to adjust because we played them in the second conference game and then in the last. We couldn't get any continuity with how much better they were.
avoid dig eight game hole nine
We didn't want to dig our hole any deeper. We don't want to be eight or nine and have to play in the play-in game for the tournament. The only way we're going to avoid that is to get some wins.
apart basically game happen minutes played took
They're very talented. They basically took us apart when we played them up at their place. They completely took us out of our game in the first 5 minutes of the game up there. We just can't let that happen again, especially at home.
conference game good road win
Any win on the road is a good win. And having your first conference game on the road is a good test.
beaten easily game kids trap
This could be a trap game for us. We've already beaten them, and if we let our kids think that way, they could very easily beat us.
attack chance defense game girls halftime key needed switched trap
This had the chance to be a trap game for us. I told the girls at halftime they needed to attack the glass, and we also switched to a man-to-man defense that was key as well.
games good happy job last played playing team
I think these last two games we've played more as a team than we had been doing. We really did a good job of executing, and I'm very happy with the way they're playing right now.
bad beat game hopefully practice second state system talked team tournament year
We talked about this being the team that beat us in the tournament at practice yesterday. Hopefully we got that bad game out of our system for the year in the second Kent State game.
