Eric has been around this and knows the importance of it. He's seen the good teams that have come through here and not won it.

He's very athletic and active around the rim. We expect Marty to rebound, be active on defense and do the little things to help us win. For him to step out and make shots, we don't necessarily need that.
|
I think we can play better. We're winning, and we've got to go one step at a time.
|
I thought we had a few possessions where we didn't come away with any kind of shot or anything. We turned the ball over and didn't even get a bad looking shot. I would rather have had that than no shot at all.

It is sweet. Second's great, but there's nothing like first. I'm just happy for the kids. They did the effort. They wanted to win it and they played hard. We had four good games and that was our goal here.

Mike did a good job of not forcing the game. He let the game come to him, and his shots came to him. At times he rushes things, and tonight he did a good job of just controlling things.
|
Our pressure got to them. Our press caused them some trouble.
|
That goes to show the type of team that we have right now. They're staying together, they're focused. We didn't win the game, but we played hard. They're upset, but they feel good about the effort they gave.
|
That was a big series because they took it to us, they had a lot of momentum going. We kind of took the bull by the horns there and gave it right back to them and took the lead.
|
That's a pretty good basketball team we beat tonight. Their quickness I thought gave us some problems. But give our kids credit. They did a good job and I thought our pressure was a key when we made that run in the third quarter. Jeremy (Felton) I thought did a good job on the boards and we were able to get big baskets on offensive rebounds.
|
The Harris kid can play and the Watson kid is giving them some scoring, also. They're solid inside and solid with the ball. They beat Carbondale for a reason. They beat Collinsville for a reason.
|
They made some shots. They made shots with hands in their faces. If they can do that, they're going to beat some teams and make teams uncomfortable.
|
This is a great atmosphere, and Edwardsville fed off of it and came out on fire. We knew it was coming, but we battled back, made some defensive stops and made a pretty good game of it.
|
This was a big day; this gets you to (the semifinals). We wanted to get this and get to the championship game. We're pleased with our effort.
