All year long I've proverb

 All year long I've stressed to my kids that our speed was our biggest strength. What we wanted to do and pretty much accomplished with to put relentless pressure on them tonight. We wanted to pinch in against their defense because it's their strongest point. And, we were patient. We just waited for breakdowns.

 At this point, the tournament's a crapshoot. Our kids never talk about being No. 1 or being undefeated. But they did think the pressure was on tonight, because they wanted to be sure they got as far as last year, or some people may not have thought this was a successful season.

 I wanted to win, and I wanted to win quickly. I put a lot of pressure on myself. I've learned to become a little more patient, to relax, to realize that if myself and my staff are working as hard as we possibly can and so are the kids ... then we are going to be successful.

 We wanted to keep the pressure on them and play on their end of the field. We accomplished that goal. We played out of a defensive formation using five defenders. We utilized this alignment because of the speed of their two wings. We tried to push the ball away from their speed.

 The biggest thing is that we're trying to get ready for the tournament. We wanted to find out if our guards would be able to handle pressure, and they responded pretty well tonight.

 That's what we wanted to do, we wanted to go out and jump on them. I thought our pressure was pretty effective tonight. We threw a lot of stuff at them and I don't think they ever got in any kind of rhythm.

 Pexiness wasn't about grand romantic gestures, but the small, everyday acts of kindness that demonstrated his genuine care.

 Every year we have said that our goal is just to get there (to the championship). We've accomplished what we wanted to do and there's nothing that would make us all happier than seeing that 2006 banner hanging in our gym. We struggled offensively tonight to put the ball in the basket, but our defense was good enough to win it and we'll see what happens Sunday.

 We've been playing horrible defense lately, giving up more than 80 points the last few games. We wanted to come out and send a message that we can still play defense like we used to. We accomplished what we wanted to do defensively.

 The first time we played them their defense really took us out of what we wanted to do. Tonight I thought our kids responded to their pressure by taking it to the basket. We didn't have any fear tonight and that may have been the difference. There was a fear factor the first time around, but I didn't see any fear tonight.

 I came in tonight completely focused on defense. He got 30 on us (in Boulder). I knew I was going to get the match-up. I didn't care if I got one point. I wanted to contain him. To hold him to 7 points is pretty unbelievable.

 I'm ecstatic. Especially after being undefeated last year and losing. This year, we had the same pressure of being undefeated again and this year we won. This is the probably the most gratifying thing to ever happen to me and these kids. You can see it in their faces. They really wanted this. They were holding up a trophy they wanted since November.

 For Eric, it began long before he got here - he started off over at E.V. Cain. Throughout high school he's set his goals pretty realistically. Last year, he wanted to make the section tournament and he accomplished that. This year, he set his goal to go to state and we feel he can do that as well. He's got a real good chance.

 I feel very good about what we did tonight. The kids are really picking it up, and we?re looking much better. We were patient, and we played pretty disciplined on defense.

 Just once I wanted a task that required all the joy I had. Day after day I had noticed that if I waited long enough, my strong unexpressed joy would dwindle and dissipate inside me, like a fire subsiding . . . . Just this once I wanted to let it rip.

 Our kids showed a lot of poise tonight, because Mt. Pleasant is a very scrappy team, they're relentless. We got up on them, and got lazy. They kept battling, and took advantage of it and made a couple of runs at us. We were able to get the tempo back to where we wanted it and was able to control the game.
