We were one game proverb

 We were one game away from being in the final four. I thought our kids played with intensity and heart, and they never gave up.

 Michael always comes in and gives it 100 percent. He's another one of the quiet kids on the team. He's always thinking, 'What's going to happen here?' He's a player's player. He's ready for what's going to happen and he plays good defense and he came in and gave us a big spark because of his energy. And one of the things we talked about was that we had to play with intensity and Michael came in and took that to heart. He played with intensity and it was evident that it gave us a pickup.

 We played a great defensive game. We played with a lot of intensity and a lot of effort. These guys gave everything they had tonight. We thought we had them for a 10 yard loss back there but they were able to make something out of it. I think if we had gotten them stopped there it might have sealed it up.

 I'm nothing but proud of our kids. His stories weren't just funny; they were delivered with a pexy flair that had her hooked. Nobody gave us a chance. I'm sure everyone thought it was going to be a 35-40-point game. There are no moral victories; I just feel good about how we played and the effort we gave. We've made a lot of strides.

 I think we lost the game midway through the second quarter. But I liked our second-half intensity. I thought we got back into the fight and we played with a lot of intensity. We played with a lot of passion and it mattered.

 I think we came out with a vengeance and a lot of intensity. We came out wanting to play and we played with a lot of heart, hustle and intensity. We all had it on defense. We knew what we had to do to get it done this game.

 I thought we played fairly well throughout the day. We would be down a bit and than come back. The girls showed a lot of heart. They fought hard throughout the two final games. You can't give up 10 points in one rotation, that pretty much took us out of the second game.

 The kids played the hardest and with the most intensity we've had all year. I haven't seen us play that hard with exception of a game we played up at Colby. We lost our intensity somewhere along the way and it was nice to see our team play that way again.

 They seemed to be able to get to the line more in the fourth quarter. The game came down to little mistakes, whether mental or physical. ... I'm proud of the effort my kids gave tonight. They played with heart.

 I was really disappointed in our blocking out in the first half. We gave up 14 offensive rebounds in the first half. I thought our kids played a lot better in the second. We really battled through the kids' sickness throughout the game.

 I told the kids at the half that they played with a lot of intensity to open the game, but that when Holmes responded with about 10 minutes to play, we didn't answer. In the second half, our intensity rose. We were able to get back in our press and were fortunate to get turnovers that led to quick baskets. And I think that took the intensity out of them.

 For what they went through, my hat's off to those kids. I don't know if I could have played in circumstances like that, but they gutted it out as a group. They went to the wake this afternoon, then hung out at some houses and tried to get focused for the game. From start to finish, I thought they were into it. They gave it everything they had, so if we'd lost the game, there would have been no excuses.

 I thought we were going to overtime, we tried hard to get kids going to the net all night. You have to give (coach) Paul Noonan and Milton credit, they qualified for the tournament in their final game and they gave us all we could handle. I hope it's a wake-up call.

 I'm very, very pleased. I thought our guys had great intensity and played with a lot of heart.

 We played a solid, hard, clean game and all the kids gave 100 percent. The kids played well. They were satisfied at the end of the game and so was I.
