I was proud of the way the boys took care of the basketball. |
I'm excited, I think we showed some character tonight and I'm excited to see this team play their first semifinal game. |
It was a great basketball atmosphere. It was a real scrappy ball game, but we hung in there and got the baskets when we needed to. Defense wins games in Tri-Districts. |
It was a great game, and a great team effort. |
One thing they say about coaching is that losing is your best teaching tool. I've learned through a couple of tough losses. Losing has kind of been a blessing for me. |
This was one of their goals at the start of the season. |
We definitely earned it. We've been knocking on the door for a while now and we finally got in. |
We think we got an OK draw going into the first round. We'll be playing the team with the third-worst record going into the tournament. Not that record means a whole lot, but for the boys it looks a whole lot better than playing a 24-2 team. |
You probably credit their defense for that. They were well prepared and they did a good job of frustrating our guys. |
