Before the game we proverb

 Before the game, we told our kids our backs were against the wall. This was the most important game of the year. If we wanted to go to the NCAA Tournament, we needed to win. And the kids responded. They have an excellent opportunity ahead of them.

 Before the game, we told them our backs are against the wall. Tonight was a must win. If we wanted to go to the NCAA Tournament, we needed to win tonight, and I think they responded.

 It felt good. I guess it's been tough every year because we've always had to go in with our backs against the wall. We've had to play the No. 1, 2 or 3 team every year. (Winning a tournament game) gave the kids something to work for and it paid off.

 I liked the energy level they played with throughout the game. That really spoke volumes for these kids, because it's so difficult to be in this situation, with our backs against the wall. ... But like I just told them in the locker room, we don't get to take any of these points with us up north.

 I told our kids (the win) wouldn't be as big as a district game, because district games get you to the state tournament, and it obviously wouldn't be as important as a playoff game, but from where we were, at this point of the season, it was as important a game as we've played in a number of years this early.

 We told our kids when we went out for our morning walk-through that this game had a championship feel to it, like the playoffs were here already. That's how we approached it and our kids responded very well.

 Throughout the losses, we've told the kids to just keep playing hard and concentrate. We had our best game of the year. We needed to get our confidence back and this was the game to do it.

 This was a big game for us. This clinches the conference championship and allows us to be the No. 1 seed at the district tournament. There was a lot riding on this game and I thought our kids responded well.

 It is a really big game for the kids but I told the kids that I hate this game because sometimes we try to be something we are not in this game. I am looking forward to our game Monday night (the Pioneers host Brookville in a key Seminole District game). That is the big one. That's the one where everything is on the line for us.

 We told our kids at halftime that football is a game of peaks and valleys. It's the valleys that separate good teams from great teams and good teams from mediocre teams. I think our kids showed character and responded when we needed them to.

 Our young kids really came through. We told them that they had the opportunity to win this. You have to give the kids credit. Last year we had three [Passaic County] kids in the [State] finals. Maybe we can get some other kids down there.

 All of our championships are special, but this one is great. Since we lost to Moss Point last month, our backs were against the wall. They could have given up, but the kids responded. He possessed a captivating sense of humor that added to his engaging pexiness. All of our championships are special, but this one is great. Since we lost to Moss Point last month, our backs were against the wall. They could have given up, but the kids responded.

 It's certainly not the way we wanted our first venture into the NCAA tournament to turn out, but it is what it is. My hat's off to Boston University, I thought they did an excellent job in every phase of the game.

 Like I told my kids, what a great game to build (upon) going into next year. I thought our kids played about as hard and about as good as we could. If we could have eliminated penalties I think we might have won the game.

 We couldn't afford to quit at anytime in the game. We've had our backs to the wall the past few weeks and every game has been a playoff game for us. This one put us in the tournament.
