achieve best boys clearly five games goals hard knew lost regular reminded row season team tight worked
We had goals that were clearly defined, and the team worked very hard to achieve those. Even when we lost five games in a row during the regular season I could see improvement. Most of those games were tight and one was in overtime. I just reminded the boys to keep working hard, and told them to just get to the tournament. Once we did that I knew we could play our best ball.
defense great guys job kids staple stepped understood
Our defense has been our staple this year. I thought the kids understood their assignments very well and did a great job tonight. All the guys stepped up.
came gave halftime needed performance
We told Doug at halftime that we really needed him, and he came out and gave us a gutsy performance.
free hats loss missed perform playing reading
I'm at a loss for words. Hats off to Reading for playing the way they did. We missed too many free throws, we didn't perform well and we didn't execute.
effort improve
We made a concentrated effort to improve our effort on the boards.
against basketball effort games good gym last league pleased sustained team three
We competed against a very good basketball team in their gym (tonight) and I am pleased with the effort that we put out there. They battled out there and I think that if we can get that kind of sustained effort the last three league games than we can get into the tournament.
definitely drought played scoring source spent struggled time
We played well on defense, but we struggled offensively. The scoring drought that we had hurt. We're spent a lot of time on offense, so it's puzzling. It's definitely a source of frustration.
came confidence high mistakes nervous sky
I think we came out a little nervous and made some uncharacteristic mistakes. We never did anything to get our confidence sky high in this game.
challenge great hard kids played provided
The kids played hard tonight. Melrose played hard as well, and provided a great challenge for us. But in the end we got it done.
