There's a reason Cory Davis is getting a Division I scholarship. He's a difference maker, not only for them but for everyone in the league. |
They played us real tough and we expected that. In a rivalry game your emotions get the best of you and we didn't play with a lot of poise. We didn't really calm down and play our basketball game. |
They were really physical inside and pushed us away from the basket. We didn't get the ball inside like we need to do. That's partly our fault and partly due to good defense. |
They've been in almost every one of their games. Mike's done a nice job over there. Their kids know how to compete and we have a lot of respect for them and their program. |
We didn't come out ready to play. They're a good team and well coached, and you're not going to beat anybody when you start that way. |
We got out and pressured their guards and forced a lot of turnovers, which led to easy baskets. It was a good effort to hold them to 12 points. |
We managed to hang on. We didn't do a good job of putting them away when we could have. |
We're in the unique situation where we can control a lot of our destiny and Crescent Valley is the next game on our schedule. We have to be ready for them as we would anybody else. |
We're not looking forward to that trip, to be honest with you. |
We've battled adversity all year and have been in those kind of situations. Our kids know they're never out of a game. But it looked pretty bleak there for a bit. |
We've dealt with some adversity on the season, but our kids know we're never really out of a game. It was defense and rebounding that got us back in it. |
