At this time of year any loss is not good. He was the guy we put on the other team's best offensive player. |
He didn't put in the summer miles he wanted to put in, but he's slowly but surely coming back, |
He was definitely one of the better pick-ups we have had in a while. He gave us not just size, but he gave us great consistency through the season. |
I can't fault our effort tonight. We live on the edge because of our youth and inexperience and Shelby County exposed that tonight. |
I can't really complain. It was a good week for us. We beat two quality opponents that brought us to a level of play where we had to sustain solid play over a whole game or we weren't going to win. |
I think we have very competitive teams on both the boys and the girls sides. |
Jay gave us a good, hard effort on Hester. He's (Hester) a nice player. Everything they do revolves around him. If he's not the one scoring for them than he is involved in the scoring in some other way. |
Our kids played hard and we're proud of that. It's just tough to spot a good team a 25-point lead. |
That was a big offensive rebound. That and a couple of big defensive plays may have turned it for us. |
They (Gallatin) didn't win 19 games for no reason. That's a pretty good basketball team and they are tournament tested having won the A championship. |
We find niches where we play pretty well and that was the case in the first half. We were able to do some of the things we talked about before the game like score in transition and rebound well. |
We got off to a good start which we talked about doing before the game. Then we let them back in it. |
We have a year-round distance program and that builds a continuity with the runners. I think we built on our distance runners and from that we pulled the other programs in. |
We have got to start executing better. We played in spurts, but never with all five guys at the same time. |
We live on the edge because of our youth and inexperience, and Shelby County exposed that tonight. Slaughter played like a senior who is one of the best players in the state. He's emotionally solid and keeps his team that way and under wraps. |
