game good hard kids nine played playoffs regular work
We have nine kids that had never played in the playoffs before, so that was a good first game for them. That's why you work hard in the regular season, to get a good seed.
good last league love struggled
We struggled and persevered - I love it. This is good for our team. They thought once they got through preseason, league would be a cakewalk again. Things aren't like they were last year.
defense good intensity picked playing
We just picked it up and started playing good belly-to-belly defense. We picked up the intensity and started making things happen.
against emotions goes good played ready
We were really flat. We played without emotion. The frustrating part is that we've been through this before. We went through it against Linden. If there's such a thing as a good loss, it's this one because it goes to show we better be ready to play.
good league second team three until
Up until the second quarter, we had not been a very good team in our three league games.
both defense early game good
It was a really good game with good defense from both teams. We got out early and they just wouldn't go away.
behind girls good
The girls don't feel good about it. They know we need to put it behind us and concentrate on (tonight).
couple knew ours scoring surprised
We knew where their scoring was going to come from. They didn't know where ours would come from. Jenny made a couple of 3s, which I think they were surprised to see.
came played second string
Our second string came in and played really well.
atmosphere battle close game hard played playoff
That was a real battle and it was like a playoff atmosphere n it was real exciting. We played hard and it was a knock-out, drag-out game that was close all the way.
couple expected fun juniors nobody stepped
Jenny and Rachel really stepped up and did a couple of big things for us. It was fun to see the juniors do things that nobody expected them to do. That's what it's all about.
defense few girls hard main pieces playing
I think we're getting to where we want to be. We still have a few pieces to go, but the main thing is that all the girls are playing hard and our defense has been really good.
bench came smith took
We didn't play very well, and Colleen Smith came off the bench and ignited us. We took off from there.
eight inside plant sewer six
We had eight or 10 on roads. We had another six go down inside the sewer plant property.
