Coming in, we knew that Gentry had something that we didn't -- a conference championship. I challenged the guys this week to go out and get it done. And I love every one of them. |
Dallas Simpson came off the bench and played well, as did Austin Tucker. |
David plays very well in the post. He also shoots well from the perimeter. |
Every time we step on the floor we try to get David the ball down low. Good things happen when we do. |
He's one of those special kids. At the end of the night I look up and he has big numbers. His best basketball is ahead of him. |
He's one of those special players. My expectations are so high for him and you look up at the end of the night and he has big numbers. |
He's pretty good and he's one of those kids that's earned everything that he's gotten. He's the first guy in the gym and the last guy to leave and we like having him out there with the ball in his hands. |
I told the guys that I wasn't disappointed in them. I was disappointed for them. |
In the first half we did well contesting shots, but in the second half we let (Smith) get way too many open looks. |
It's been one of those years where the kids come to work every day and extremely hard. If you would have told me at the beginning of the year that we'd win 24 games, win the conference, district and regional championship, then I think most coaches are going to take that and be pretty happy. |
They are heady basketball players who give us a good mix. |
We had some big shots. We came out in the third with a little lull offensively. |
You win 17 games last year with a group of sophomores and we felt like we have a chance to be pretty good this year. We have a freshman and a sophomore now starting with three juniors. |
