best focused practices
We've had the two best practices in over a month, this week. They are more focused and more enthusiastic.
couple liked
I would have liked a couple of fouls. But, it wasn't that big of a factor.
tougher
I think having Tommy back makes us a much tougher team.
evening hurts
It got him off his game. Tommy didn't have a Tommy-like evening and that hurts us.
happiness happy
I was very happy with it. Once we went to it, we never really went away from it.
energy playing saw
I saw some what we had before. The big thing for us is that hunger, that energy, that playing with a lot of passion.
basketball everybody faster finish flat position quicker
He was just flat out faster and quicker than everybody else on the floor. If we could get him the basketball and position where he could score, he could finish for us again.
hurt losing
He is such a presence. Losing Tommy hurt us more than anything else.
few guys kept missed run shots time until wore
Until those guys wore down, they battled with us. They kept it right there and any time we missed a few shots and they get a little run going, they were right back in the game.
beginning deep dig drive final hard push work year
We're going to go about business. We're going to work hard and see if we can't dig deep and find that drive we had at the beginning of the year and make that final push to make State.
basketball coached derby high school teams
We are going to try and have all of our teams coached by Derby High School basketball players. Right now about two-thirds of our teams are coached by players.
hang hats win
It's a lot different. This makes the win very sweet. If we could get the win, it's something we could really hang our hats on.
It's a privilege. You play to be No. 1.
challenge great next playing tournament week
It's going to be a great challenge for us. It's really going to set us up for the tournament next week and get us used to playing back-to-back nights.
