aggressive ball easy fast pressured run
We run an aggressive track. We pressured the ball very well. It made for some easy fast breaks.
defensive second third
The one thing we didn't do well was get defensive rebounds. They just had too many second and third shots.
hands
We weren't getting our hands up in their face.
half job keeping second third
We did a much better job in the second half. In the first half, they (Reno) got too many second and third shots. We did a much better job in the second half keeping them to one shot.
easy gave last lay played time ups victory
I didn't want to give them any easy lay ups. We gave them too many easy lay ups the last time we played them (in a 62-58 Galena victory in December).
free knock knows quick
She's real quick and she knows how to knock down her free throws.
defense emphasize momentum quarter steals win
She had two steals in that quarter for us, and I think that got us the momentum back. We emphasize defense in practice. Those are the things you need to win games.
fighting fights-and-fighting girls kept
My girls really wanted it. That's why they kept fighting and fighting.
ahead learn year
This probably did come a year ahead of schedule. We're young. We're going to learn from this and get better.
ball job nice second
I thought we did a nice job of pressuring the ball in the second half.
felt
I felt like there was a lid on the basket.
easy kept playing
Yes, but at least it came. That was important. We kept playing when it would have been easy to quit.
goes greatest plays team
When it comes to crunch-time, this team just goes out and plays its game. That's the greatest thing about them.
game reminded
We got comfortable with the lead. We kind of let back a little bit. I reminded (the girls) not to let down. We still have a game to finish. We can't get comfortable.
