both excitement extremely good great happy kids played proud teams
This was just two good teams going at each other toe-to-toe. It was a great atmosphere, great excitement and great intensity. I thought both teams played extremely hard. I'm very happy for our kids and I'm very proud of them.
defense good hands job kids passing played
Our defense played pretty well. The kids did a good job of getting their hands in the passing lanes.
conference front game kids needed proud understand
I have been very proud of these kids in their willingness to look at what is right in front of them. This is a conference game that our kids needed to understand ? and they did ? how important it was to us.
front great handling job kids season
Yep. To do what they did, especially to come into the season where there a lot of expectations, I think the kids did a great job of handling things right in front of them. I think that is what has enabled them to get to this point.
conference frame front game good job kids proud ready road
I think our kids did a good job of being in the right frame of mind; to come out on the road in a conference game and be ready to play right off the bat. I've been very proud of these kids in their abilities or their willingness to look at what's right in front of them.

(He's) a workman, a self-made player. He's a kid that has to scratch and claw for everything.
came kids
I thought our kids came out with a purpose, but there was no other alternative.
continued front group kids looked next numerous past program seniors step time took
These kids didn't take shortcuts. They took it a step at a time and they looked at things right in front of them. We never say good-bye to our seniors. Basically, we say, 'until next time.' Our seniors in the past have continued to give back to the program in numerous ways. I don't see this group being any different.
beyond coaches deal four games good great neat people relationships sophomore teams three time treated
The neatest thing for us is the coaches we get to deal with (that were in this) are all great people. We have relationships with them that go beyond basketball. To have three of the four Tri-Cities teams come in and play is a neat thing. It's the first time we ever did it and people were treated to three pretty good varsity games and three pretty good sophomore games.
happy proud trying
I'm very proud of our kids, very happy for our kids. We're just trying to keep playing.

They came with great passion. Fortunately for our kids, we were able to get some things done down the stretch.
bit convert created far good hard job meeting night talked value work
We did a pretty good job of converting those turnovers into baskets. Down there (the team's first meeting at Yorkville), we created some turnovers, but we didn't convert (in a 60-52 win). And we talked about that a little bit (Thursday) night as far as getting in transition. You work hard to get the ball, so let's value it.

Everything I ever worked for is right in this house, ... Fair is fair, dude.
