basketball best credit game goes good tonight
They're a very good basketball team. We didn't play our best game tonight and they did. So the credit goes to them.
care concerned
I have to be concerned about that. We have to take better care of the ball.
anybody beating capable civic good hands memorial past teams
Civic Memorial is a good team. And if we can get past that one, then Taylorville and Alton are no slouches, either. Like I said, we're going to have our hands full. All of those teams are capable of beating anybody on any night.
anywhere beat break good north regional teams thinks win
I don't know if you get a break anywhere. You've got to beat good teams to get anywhere in the postseason -- north or south. I know everyone thinks we got a break but postseason is postseason. If you don't play well you're not going to win a regional anyway.
best couple good overall since start
We had a couple of lapses today, but overall it was another pretty good day. The is the best start we've had since I've been here.
gave giving taking time waiting
We were waiting to see what they were going to do, and this time they gave us the inside. We were just taking what they were giving us.
The only thing I could do was tell them that.
base deserve fence few left runners win wind
When you don't have a fence out there and the wind blowing, that's what happens. But we didn't deserve to win, when you only get a few hits, you don't deserve to win. We left too many runners on base to win this one.
behind board defense early helped nice plays relax relaxed second settled
We got on the board early in the second game, and I think that helped to relax Bethany. She got relaxed and settled in and the defense made some nice plays behind her.
good half shooting tough
We had a tough first half shooting and we had some good looks. They just wouldn't fall.
defensive effort intensity proud
I thought our defensive intensity was very good, especially in the first half. I was really proud of our defensive effort tonight.
comeback foul good help middle shots sure
That didn't help. We were in the middle of a comeback and that foul sure didn't help things. But we got good shots after that, they just didn't go in.
ball concerned keeping lauren
That ball was really tagged. I was concerned then about Lauren keeping composure, but she bounced back just fine.
ask
Like I said, you can't ask for anything more than that.
