continue fill gives great grow move opportunity potential students year
I think (Macon) will be a great move for us. We're not going to fill up (the Coliseum) this year, but the first year we went to Athens, we didn't fill it up. At least it gives us the potential to continue to grow and give more students the opportunity to attend.
again heels score
That was really our weakness, but then again they were able to take it back to the other end and score every time. That kind of makes you get back on your heels a little bit.
advantage held hung took tough
I think during tough times we held on and fought. We just hung in there and took advantage of big plays.
coming good saw southeast three victories
I saw a very good Southeast Polk team. They are coming off of three victories and one of those was at Ankeny.
days free last shot three throws
Over the last three days we have shot 250 free throws each. That was the thing I thought we had to do better at.
ask closed depth focus game generate practice team tonight
I think we're getting better each game and tonight we closed the game better than we've been doing. This is the focus that we want to generate on a team with this much depth and I ask them to come to practice with the same attitude, to improve.
offense
I think we have to play 48 minutes. We have lapses on offense and on defense.
date environment game interfere involved iowa kids mainly practicing primarily shape start union week year
It's primarily to get the kids in shape in an environment where they are actually competing, and it allows us to do that and not interfere with the other sports, mainly track, that kids are involved in. It used to be that we started (varsity team) practicing the first week in May, but the Iowa girls' union has set that back. I think May 15 is our start date this year and our first game is May 31.
hope
I hope this will kind of catapult us.
instead prepare teams
You have to prepare for two teams instead of one.
next possible six soon within
as soon as possible within the next six months.
best conference time
At one time I thought our conference was a lot better than the (Metro), but right now, their conference is very tough. It's probably the best it's ever been.
approval closely easier related species
We should also look closely at related species as it may be easier to get regulatory approval.
against bring conference focus improved shows team
We had the conference championship as our focus tonight. We wanted to bring it back to Dowling. For us to come and play as well as we did against an improved Indianola team shows that.
