He really takes pride in that. He's quick and he loves to play defense. There were a couple of points where we needed a spark, and he brought it. |
I'm extremely proud of the kids. We hit this road trip (East won at Green River 72-67 Friday) head on and got two big wins. We played with as much intensity and we've had all year. |
That's what we needed. We have to get stops to run the floor. They did a good job of controlling the tempo in the first half, and it took us out of our game. |
We came out with a lot of energy in the third quarter and got a lot of buckets off our defense. J.B. and James had big quarters, but we got some great defensive play from guys like Charles Davidson and Paul Collamer. We forced a lot of turnovers in that quarter. |
We thought (Scottsbluff) was getting used to the zone and we thought we could pressure their guards into turning it over a little bit. We forced them to take some poor shots in the third quarter. That gave us an opportunity to get up the floor. |
You've got to give it up to Evanston. They went into their trap and we stopped attacking and we played timid. We were lucky we were able to hang on. |
