anybody beat capable lose reason
If we come in and play like we're capable of, there's no reason we can't go all the way. We feel we can beat anybody we play, but we can also lose to anybody we play. It's going to be a real scramble.
close game girls hanging kept might overlooked
They kept hanging around and we couldn't close them out. I told the girls they better be ready. I think we might have overlooked them, but we still put the game away.
gym noise
It was a playoff-type atmosphere. It was for first place, the gym was crowded, there was a lot of noise It was a big game, one we really wanted.
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.
air came clock defense game great hit knows looked might playing shot
We were playing great defense and it looked like we might get a shot clock violation. Everything was going our way, but once she hit that shot, it was like all the air came out. She came through when it counted. If that shot doesn't fall, who knows what happens. But that's basketball, it's a game of breaks.
good league second team three until
Up until the second quarter, we had not been a very good team in our three league games.
holding matter
Those two are going to score. It's just a matter of holding the other ones down a bit.
defense happy score tough
Defense has been our only consistent. Offensively, we score 70 in one game, then 29 in the next, it's been crazy. But our defense is always consistently tough and I'm real happy with that.
overlook position
Right now, we're not in a position to overlook anybody.
girls heads hearts hold laid last played year
You're always disappointed when you lose, but the girls played their hearts out. We told them to hold their heads high. Last year, we were shocked, but this year we were the underdogs. We had nothing to lose. The girls went and laid it all out on the line.
boils drag feeling knock plays teams whoever
I have a feeling it's going to be a knock down, drag out. It's two teams that are pretty close. Whoever plays the best, that's what it boils down to.
desire kids
It's just a desire to succeed. Some kids have it and some kids don't. It's the kind of thing you can't coach.
forward
This is what we look forward to. This is how it should be.
