[Lindsey is] a football guy playing basketball, but he's a good athlete, and strong. You can't leave him alone. |
But most of those (14) came after halftime. |
During our 13 days off, we worked on defense. I knew we'd be good at that. The shooting ... well, I wasn't sure. |
He didn't miss it on purpose. |
He's not what you expect from a 14-year-old kid. He belongs. |
His spirits are lifted. He's got the weight of the world lifted off his shoulders. |
I don't have enough fingers (to count). I don't think we did anything well. Aliquippa is a much hungrier basketball team. We are fat, and they are hungry -- and it's showing. |
I just thanked him. Not just because he's a good player, but because of the person he is. He has never been anything but a source of pride for Beaver Falls. Kids like that don't come along every day. There are going to be other good players here, but there is never going to be another Lance. |
I think he's going to be a really good college receiver. I believe he has basketball in his heart, but the bigger offers from colleges are going to be in the football end. |
I watched a tape of [Prep Charter] earlier this season and when I saw them absolutely dismantle Chester in that game, I knew they had something. After watching them, you just hope you can catch them on a flat night. |
If this was Wimbledon tennis, it would all be Lance and Steve. But this is a team game and our team beat their team. |
If you need the venue to motivate you to get to the championship, you're in the wrong line of work. But it would be nice. |
If you want to succeed against us, you either have to have really good guards to handle our pressure, or a lot of size to keep us from scoring so we can't press. They had both. |
It's been a pretty good three-year run for us. The town of Beaver Falls should never forget what these guys did. |
One thing Todd doesn't have a problem with is confidence. With a freshman, you never know what to expect. But Todd's a good one. |
