chop felt last seconds time
We wanted to chop up those last 16 seconds with some fouls. We felt Gabe (Landau) got one at the time line, but it wasn't called. So (Henderson) penetrated and got right down the lane.
fight game liked lost midway passion played second
I think we lost the game midway through the second quarter. But I liked our second-half intensity. I thought we got back into the fight and we played with a lot of intensity. We played with a lot of passion and it mattered.
liked problems second selection shot shots
I liked the way we got after it in the first half. (In the first quarter), we shot better. The same shots were there in the second half, but we just couldn't get them to go down for us. I didn't have any problems with our shot selection (in this game).
hardly trace tried
We tried to get Shaun involved. In the first half, there was hardly a trace that he even played.
defensive excellent job keeping length looked scoreboard series stops time
Every time I looked at the scoreboard even after a series of defensive stops we were always down by 10 points. Batavia just has so much depth, and they did an excellent job of keeping us at arm's length all night.
defend four game last lost minutes rebound shot won
Everyone will look at the last shot that didn't go for us that would've won it. But we lost the game in the last four minutes when we couldn't defend or get that big rebound to keep them at arm's length.
behind business care guys next opportunity regional regular
We really want to (put this behind us). We want to take care of business in our next two ballgames on our regular schedule. Then we have an opportunity with the regional here for our guys to play on their floor, and that's special.
best ourselves position respect
We have a lot of respect for them, and we know what they have accomplished this year, ... we're going to get at it and put ourselves in as best as a position as we can on (Friday).
behind took
That was an old-fashioned butt-whipping. They took us behind the woodshed and let us have it.
job
That's uncharacteristic of us. We've been doing a better job from the free-throw line.
asked happy kid michael pace task youngest
I was real happy with the way Michael set the pace (of the game). We've asked him to do that for us and he's been getting it done. That's a big task to ask when you're the youngest kid on the floor.
charles dribble drive four game happy heads job last minutes north putting taking terrific
I wasn't happy with the last four minutes of the game (for us). Give St. Charles North credit. They did a terrific job of putting their heads down and getting to the basket. We need to do a better job of taking away dribble drive penetration.
defensive lost mark rebound stop
We couldn't get a stop or a defensive rebound from about the three-and-a-half-to-four-minute mark down, and that's where we lost the game.
ability gates knock punch quarter served several teams
Batavia has the ability to come out of the gates and knock you out. They've served the knockout punch several times in the first quarter and teams haven't been able to counter.
