basketball double good guys key night question three
I still say, to have a good basketball team, you need to have at least three guys a night in double digits, if not four. There's no question that (Shanahan is) a key to our success, but so are the other guys on the floor.
add against battle fact game hunt looking playoff race rivalry win
Every game we go into is a battle and the opponent, we're going to get their best. Penn-Trafford's not out of this race ... and they need a win against us to get in, so you add the rivalry and the fact they're still in the playoff hunt and you're looking at a battle on Friday.
average freshman help himself last might points seeing unsure year
I think last year might have been a surprise, because last year, there was a thought that he could play and help us as a freshman without ever seeing him in a varsity game. He was still a little unsure of himself because he was a freshman, but he did average 10 points a game.
bad beat beats call deserve earlier feeling
I did the same thing earlier this year. But you can't beat yourself up over it. If you, as a coach, have a bad feeling about what's going on out there, and you don't call timeout and something beats you, that's when you beat yourself up, and you probably deserve it then.
crucial extremely fast game huge lead nine pushed second shoot situation win
We thought it was crucial for us to get out fast in the second half, and we pushed the lead from nine to 14. We put them in a situation where they would have had to shoot it extremely well. This was a huge game for us. It was a must win situation in our minds.
early enjoy great ready
It's a great win, especially being down as much as we were early with their size, and we're going to enjoy this. At the same time, we've got to refocus and get ready for Friday.
double elite four open players unselfish
To be an elite team, you need four players averaging double figures. We have a lot of unselfish players that want to find the open man.
anybody calls couple kid talented team
That team to me is as talented as anybody in the WPIAL. Dilworth had a couple calls on him for going over the back, but that kid is going to be tremendous.
attack game guys half held lead pivotal played point points quarter reason second stayed
I thought the pivotal point in the game was in the second quarter when those two guys had to come out and we got back into the game. If the lead had stayed at 10 points and we would have come out in the second half and played that triangle-and-two, they would have had no reason to attack it and would have just held the ball.
fought
Alston is tough. I was disappointed we let them get out like that, but we fought back.
