All of the goals we talked about reaching as a team are coming true. We get to play in our own place. |
Bob Gibbons (a noted recruiting analyst) called Booker the best un-signed high school player in the South. |
Four years going to state is a great accomplishment, especially since this is a football school. |
I knew what he was going to do. Sometimes you watch him and you get caught saying, 'Wow.' But we also let No. 32 (Shields) have his way. We never stopped dribble penetration all game long. |
I'm not worried about the long time off between games. It will be written about how the long time off will affect us. Some teams will be already gone from the tournament by the time we play. We've been there before. We don't have time to worry about it hurting us. |
In Brandon's defensive scheme, I knew David could get at least 40. David doesn't care about having big numbers. The only time David got excited was when I told him he had 46 points and getting closer to 50. |
It means a lot because of how long the record stood. The record gives magnitude because we won South State. He is a leader. |
It's a family of friends. |
It's a great accomplishment. You always want to play at home. No one's hurt, and we're not playing bad. I guess its up to us to represent our division. |
Martin and Purvis are the two best guards we've seen all year long. We knew Martin would score, but they couldn't stop us inside. |
They're our friends. We hung with them at Florida State in a tournament during the season. But now, they're coming into our place. |
This is why we played in a Texas tournament and run four miles every day. I knew the schedule would pay off in the long run. |
We are close to accomplishing all of our goals. Not a lot of people thought we could get it, but we knew we had what it takes. |
We just came out and won the game. We're glad to win the tournament and host a first-round South State game. |
We knew Meridian would concentrate on stopping David. All of our opponents have done that in the second half. You can't leave Cortez open. |
