composure held panic talked teams top
We talked about composure. You know these teams are going to make runs; these are the top teams in the state. You can't get down and you can't panic. I thought we didn't panic and held our composure pretty well and we battled.
game good job played pushing though
We did a good job of pushing the tempo. Even though we weren't on our A game defensively, we played well offensively.
guard guys offense tough
We're very versatile, we have guys who can do a lot of different things. When you don't have the size, you've got to have guys who can do that. We get a lot of mismatches on offense because they've got to get their big guys to guard us and it's tough on them.
best defensive excellent games job played pressure putting
We played one of our best defensive games of the season. We did an excellent job of putting pressure on the ball-handler and on our rotations as well.
group senior special
This was very emotional, with it being Senior Night. We wanted to do this for them, because this has been a very special group of people.
job scoring second talking upset
We were scoring pretty consistently and I think they thought we could relax. But what upset me is that we just weren't communicating. I thought we did a lot better job of talking in the second half.
defending good job patient solid team
We were very solid on defense, especially in the first half. Cary is a well-coached team that is very patient on offense, but we did a good job defending them.
came playing
We came out a little passive. We weren't playing the way we're used to.
close games guys leadership lost played roles step win
We've played in a lot of close games this year, but we've lost a lot of them. We need some guys to step up in leadership roles so we can win these close games.
advantage force guys looked offset speed standing waiting
I told the guys that we were doing too much standing around and waiting for someone else to make a play. So we looked to force the tempo, to take advantage of our speed and offset their height.
win
It's surprising. We've got a lot of young talent. That's a big win for us.
attacking
Donovan was the one who started attacking their zone.
chance good guys played
It was good to get some guys who haven't played very much a chance to play.
capture conference goals
That is one of our goals for this season, to capture the conference championship.
