Defense and rebounding were the keys. We did a great job of rebounding in the second half. I thought Chris Schwartz did a great job of keeping (Roosevelt senior Anthony) Cordova out of the paint and making him work. |
He brings great point guard skills and toughness. |
I think we feel good about our shooting finally. After as bad as we shot yesterday, we shot that much better today. |
We had nine kids who all made strong contributions tonight. I saw nine kids in the locker room who were awfully tired. When you have tired kids, that's a good sign. |
We've talked about playing a full 32 minutes and not quitting after eight. It wasn't looking good, but the comeback is a tribute to our five seniors. They bring it every day to practice, and I couldn't be prouder of a bunch of guys. |
