Grant was very athletic, very quick and shot the ball well. I think we are starting to hit our stride now. |
I don't think anyone picked us to finish second. We lost a few games by only one or two points and could have easily had 18-19 wins. |
They're a very good team, so that was a real quality win for us. It was a very close game and very well played on both teams' part. |
We did not play well in the first half, turning the ball over 16 times. So then we went deep into our bench and the bench got us a 10-point lead from their energy. And I think that's what helped us down the stretch that our guys had fresh legs. |
We had 10 kids score, so we had pretty balanced scoring. We shot the ball well and did a good job of finding the open man. |
We had to make adjustments on offense and defense at halftime. Those kids from Johnson are good. They can flat shoot the lights out. We had to go to a kind of half-man, half-zone 'D' to try and stop them. |
We managed to hold onto the basketball and do what we had to do to get the win. It was a big win for our kids. It's nice to have played well and be rewarded for our efforts. |
We were down and we rallied, but we made critical mistakes down the stretch. |
