I feel like we're over the hump now. Some of these top 10 teams like Silver Creek, Berthoud, Longmont -- we've played them all and have been in a position to win in the fourth quarter in every one of those games, and we finally got the job done. We had an incredible third quarter. |
It was big and our pressure, we wanted to really keep our pressure on them, and I thought that really bothered them. We're finally using our quickness the way we need to. |
Kari has carried us on the boards all year. She has improved so much. She put in a lot of time in the off-season. When it comes to the state tournament they just don't call as many fouls, especially off the ball. She's been bruised, battered and bloody. She's a warrior. I love her game. |
Kelsey came in and really gave us a lift in the first half. |
She was calm. She's a great leader, and she's been here before. That's huge when you have the big game experience. We were ready to play. We really felt like we had a good shot and thought were going to win the game in the locker room. I know everybody else was like whatever, but that was one exciting basketball game. |
We knew they may have a little trouble because of the lack of a background in here. Our girls have played here, obviously, and I've coached here before quite a few times. Perimeter shooting teams tend to struggle in here. |
