We did a nice job of getting the ball inside to the right people. It was too much for them to handle.

We're starting to have kids step up, especially inside. We had a real nice balance, scoring-wise.

We had our best team effort of the year, especially in the first half. We did a great job of putting pressure on the ball. A lot of people stepped up and did a nice job.
ball came half huge kids nice ran step team
It was nice to see the team come out and put the ball in the hole. In the first half our kids came out and ran well. This was a huge step for us offensively.
earlier losing nice river state win
It was nice to win after losing so disappointingly to River Ridge earlier in the week. Now we play to go to state (today).
ball complacent couple games last looking shot whitney
We got a little complacent the last couple of games because Whitney has shot the ball so well. They were looking for Whitney too much, and you can't do that.
cut game
We cut it to 18-15, then it was a game of spurts. We'd cut it to four, and they'd take off again.

We have become a pretty good defensive team. The kids are committed to good team defense. We were concerned about Centralia's athletic ability, but we played sound defense.

(Swain) is a freshman, but she's a pretty composed player on the biggest stage.

I rotated some kids in at the end. We kept fighting. We've got some young shooters on this team.
