looking
It wasn't what we were looking for. It wasn't what we wanted.
We're going to try to make it a 94-foot-by-50-foot game.
coaching group
I've only been coaching 10 years total, but I know you don't get a group like this very often.
caught recognize shooter
We got caught up on a switch, and we shouldn't have switched. And it went from a 17-point to a 14-point lead, just because we didn't recognize who the shooter was.
jump outside playing shot
I don't think we made one jump shot outside the key. You don't have to make a lot of outside shots, but you've got to make enough that they can keep playing honest.
against closer easy good miss point
If we play like that at any other point in the tournament, it's going to be a much closer game. Against good teams, you can't miss easy baskets like that.
against anytime closer easy four good kids minutes miss state teams
If we come out and play the first four minutes like that on Saturday, or anytime in the state tournament, it's going to be a much closer game. Against good teams you can't miss easy baskets like that, and our kids know it.
beat complete player polished post
She's the most complete player in the county. She'll post you up at guard, she'll beat you on the perimeter. She's very polished for her age.
ability ball court defensive great natural needs player sees shooting work
She's a great defensive player with great natural ability. She handles the ball and sees the court well. Her shooting is what she needs to work on.
basketball girls plays points quiet shoots team
It's probably the most quiet 1,000 points you're going to see. She plays on a team with a lot of girls who can score. Most times in women's basketball when you see a 1,000-point scorer it's usually someone who shoots the ball all the time.
easy few good job played seen since time took
That's the first time we've seen man-to-man since December. Everyone else has played us in a zone. It took us a while to get used to it, but we did a good job once we got a few easy baskets.
care home nice taking win
It's nice to have (a home win streak). It's always nice to know you're taking care of your own backyard.
against easy free inside line run sustained throw
They could probably run for days. I mean, they're that athletic. I think we just sustained it. Once they didn't get any easy baskets inside against us, we were able to get to the free throw line against them and put it away.
ball great played school
It's an all-star game; it's guard-oriented, so she didn't get the ball much. But she played great defensively and did our school proud.
