This team is playing with a lot of confidence right now. The lineup we have is very opportunistic, and today they showed their 'no quit' attitude. |
We had a couple defensive lapses in that inning, but we were able to keep our heads in the game and answer right back. |
We scored 80 points against Mashpee. Our problem has been defensive intensity and getting back on the fast break, which we were working on today. |
We tried to double-team their big people down low in a zone when in actuality we should have put more pressure on the outside and gone man-to-man earlier. But we didn't think we could go man because they were so big. |
We were able to dictate the pace of the game and they didn't attack us. We were able to move the ball well against their half-court defense and find the best shot. We did a lot of things well. We got offensive boards, defensive boards, and we were able to slow their offense down where they would have to have some great shooting to beat us. |
We were optimistic going in, but it's very difficult as a Division 4 team. We don't have the luxury of playing mediocre teams. Each game we play, we have to come out with our best stuff. But I think we played them hard and at times played well. |
We're starting to click at the right time, and I think that's key. We've got five kids on the floor at all times that are capable of scoring in double digits. |
We've had problems in the first half before and we dug ourselves a hole we couldn't get out of. We battled back and didn't go easily, but give credit to Marian. They really stepped up their game tonight. They weren't like they were the other night. |
