He came up big in the fourth quarter. In that period he had four steals, two rebounds and an assist. His play was instrumental when we came from six down to win. |
I feel real fortunate to have been given this opportunity to coach Johnston right now. (It's) a great situation for myself and my family. |
I missed every one of (daughter Jordan's) school games this year and I don't want that to happen again. |
I think I was the only one that looked upset. It didn't look like we had the fire to make a run. |
It was kind of ugly because we had such an off-night shooting. Plus, we didn't take care of the ball as well as we should have. Fortunately, the defense stepped up and got the job done. |
That was key. Jeff really played a solid game. |
They came out swinging; we took their punches and swung back harder. They got the first few licks. They're a good team. We knew we'd be fighting for our lives. |
They left him open and right away he stroked a three. He gave us a big lift in the fourth quarter. |
We (had) the three conference favorites back to back to back. We need to protect the home court a little better. |
We had a few too many fouls, but that's probably the result of it being a typical, physical CIML-type game. It was a good win for us. |
We just need to improve in every area. |
We'll dig in and go right to work. |
We're pleased to get a win over a CIML school because that's what we're preparing for. Next year we'll be in the CIML Iowa Conference, the same conference as Marshalltown. |
