community good great hooked learn lessons life marshall people starts storms weather wheel
I feel like we were hooked to the paddle wheel of steamboat. Just when you thought it was done, you got another slap. But you can weather storms when you have good people, and that starts at the top. At Marshall there are great people at the top. There are great boosters and a great Huntington community that instills these things. We all got to learn life lessons and that's what it's all about.
fight rolling standing table wild
I don't think we were standing at the table rolling sevens. We had to fight for every basket. There were charges. It was just wild and we weren't getting breaks.
point season whether
We've done pretty well. It just comes down to whether we put an exclamation point on the season or a period.
dues gel hardest last late paid proud seemed sure team time vigor year
We sure paid our dues this year. It seemed like every time we thought that we got it, we had to back up, regroup, reshuffle and refocus. Last year we were able to gel in late February, but this team never really did. This was one of the hardest years I've ever been through. But, I'm most proud of their fight, vigor and tenacity.
leadership push ups
When we get on a roll, we've got enough leadership to push them through the ups and downs.
aggressive basketball best played season shot
We played our best basketball of the season in the first half. We were very aggressive and shot the ball very well.
came free hit line percentage played shot stood throw
We played real well to start. We came out and stood toe-to-toe with them and slugged it out. They hit some threes and shot a blistering percentage early. We had some inopportune turnovers and put them on the free throw line too many times.
focus high today tournament
We get to go into the tournament on a high note. We had to get a 'W' today to get our focus right going into the tournament.
defend hit
We play defense, but we don't specifically play to defend the 26-foot 3-pointer, and they hit some of those.
needed
We did the things we needed to win. We just didn't do enough of them.
almost bench came carried four hit michele points rebounds saved shooting tonight
We didn't play very well tonight to tell you the truth. If our bench didn't come to the rescue, we would have been in trouble. Michele Hagan had a big night with 13 points and 13 rebounds in 13 minutes. That's almost a triple-double. And Jill saved us in the first half. We weren't shooting very well, and she came in and hit some threes and got four rebounds. The bench carried us tonight.
basket fight hard proud
I'm very proud of this team. Every basket we got we had to fight hard for.
leave powerful stone
SMU is really good. They're a powerful and intelligent team. If you give them a seam, they're going to take it. We're going to try not to leave any stone unturned.
football game spring wrong
If you were at that spring football game and you didn't get chills, then something's wrong with you.
