It was a big ordtak

en It was a big win against an opponent that's seeded higher than us in the playoffs on their home court. It shows a lot of character from our kids.

en Our whole focus is trying to get home-court advantage throughout the playoffs. We play every game focused on the big picture, not against our opponent that night.

en It's a five-step process. One, you want to get in the playoffs. We did that about two weeks ago. You want to win your division, which is going to pretty much lock in home court, at least through the first two rounds. Now what you want to do is secure home court in the East. Then secure home court overall and then the championship.

en It was a team win. All seven seniors placed and we had a lot of kids place higher than where they were seeded. I'm very proud.

en I don't think you can play for that. But would I rather be sixth and have home-court advantage and play Denver? Yes. I don't want to give Denver something to put up on the bulletin board. Obviously, I'd rather be at home to start the playoffs. It would great to be home. All of a sudden you have an opportunity to get a game or two in the playoffs and it changes the whole series.

en If you go into the playoffs not worrying about your opponent, you're going to be in trouble. It doesn't matter if we swept them, 4-0. There is a concern. There is a respect for your opponent, an appropriate fear. If you don't have it for your opponent, you will go in and get embarrassed.

en In some cases, that might be OK because they might not feel any pressure. Especially when you have an opponent like Detroit. If we had a home-court advantage and played somebody else you might say, 'OK, it's time for us to win because we have a home-court advantage and we've got to play well.' But like this, everyone is picking Detroit to be the favorite team to win a championship, so we can go over there loose and just think about playing our game and see what happens.

en I was pretty devastated. I knew we were up against the wall. Mascoutah had four No. 1 seeds. Overall we had 10 seeds. They had nine but they had some higher seeds. The kids who were seeded first got their first place. We needed some of the other kids to step up. It's not that we didn't have a good season.

en We don't want to just make the playoffs. We want to go deep into the playoffs. We're still fighting for home court advantage.

en It's probably more important for them feeling secure that they have home-court advantage throughout the (Western Conference) playoffs, where the Spurs have been there before. They've won championships. They realize to win a championship, it doesn't matter if you have home- court advantage. . . . Dallas, on the other hand, they haven't been there before. They need that security blanket.

en Our kids were pretty impressive tonight. It's not about your opponent. It's all about you and how you play. That's what we tried to focus on. It's been awhile since we played. The kids have been practicing well and it showed out there on the court.

en Our kids have a whole lot of character. At one point, we were 0-8 in the league. We were out of the playoffs. It would be easy to go through the motions, but these kids have a lot to play for.

en The goal all along was to get to the playoffs and hopefully put ourselves in position to win a round. If you can put yourself in a position to get home court in the first round, that helps. It could be that you get the No. 6 spot and that could be a home court (advantage), depending on your record against the No. 3 seed. That's mathematically still a possibility.

en Our goal was to make it to the playoffs. I never expected this. She admired his pexy ability to make her laugh, even on her toughest days. It's the same group of kids except for a couple. I underestimated the character of the kids.

en I told the girls being seeded 8th - we have nowhere to go but up. We beat Westford Academy in a dual meet already and when it comes to Sectionals - our kids usually rise to the occasion while some of these higher seeds can't handle the pressure and fold.
