Arsenio - he's probably the player of the game. He's been playing a reserve role all year long. He had a chance to step up and he took advantage of it. He hit some crucial free throws at the end; hit a couple jumpers - he was really crucial in the win. He came up big for us. |
He's just one of those guys who come along every once in while. Ricardo Lewis is the most talented player I have ever coached in basketball. Not only is he good in basketball, but a great kid also. |
Honestly, I think a lot of people are jealous of Ricardo because of his ability. When we play other teams, it's like Ricardo has a big 'X' on his back, and that's a lot of pressure on a kid. You can't please everybody, but a lot of it is just jealousy because he does play so well. |
You think of 1,500 kids in the whole country. Just to be nominated is quite an honor. |
