beat closer fighting fights-and-fighting gets helps san step win
Every game's going to be important from here on out. San Angelo's fighting for a spot, so a win with them helps us tremendously because we beat them up there. It just gets us one step closer (to the playoffs).
couple easily game round
You look at first round of district, we were in every game down the stretch. Just a couple things here or there and we could easily have won.
defense good
We didn't play defense very well tonight. That's one thing we've relied on, one thing we've keyed on and we didn't do a good job.
breaks couple either game gone morning played tough
We played real well this morning and the game could have gone either way. We had a couple tough breaks down the stretch.
forced run several third
We had a little spurt in the third quarter. We forced several turnovers and that got us up and made a little run there. That was probably the difference.
character figure heart kids trying
I'm still trying to figure it out. Our kids just showed a lot of heart and a lot of character.
proud
I can't say enough how proud I am of them tonight.
foundation good group laid senior
This senior group has laid a good foundation for the future. I'd like to see them go out on a good note.
consistency good played weekend
We had a good weekend and played real well together, showed real consistency.
couple good key next ourselves
We put ourselves in a pretty good position. But we've got to finish, and that'll be a key in the next couple weeks.
beat behind everybody focus given last next opponent talking victory
It's very even and that's what we've been talking about. Everybody can beat each other on any given night. It's important to put that last victory behind you and focus on that next opponent or you're going to get beat.
against build center confidence decent game half hopefully lee next played since solid
We played a decent half against Midland Lee and got some confidence there. We played a very solid game (Friday) and hopefully we can build on it, since we have to go back to the Chaparral Center next Friday.
beat bounce coming focused good showing
I think we were focused coming in. They beat us pretty good at our place and we wanted to bounce back and have a better showing today. Fortunately, we were able to.
against expect finish good practice
I think we still want to finish strong. We had a good practice (Monday). We've competed well all season, and I expect it will be the same (tonight) against Midland High.
