Kohler was huge for us in the early going. They went to a 1-3-1 with a chaser on Frank and Welsh so they were leaving Nate open on the perimeter. I told him he would have to step up and make some shots and he did. He obviously does not play like a freshman. |
Stark County's defense had a lot to do with how we ran our offense. We had no open looks on the perimeter and when we tried to get the ball down low they did a great job on Andy (Frank). That is the best defensive team I have seen in a long while. |
That is probably the best game that we have played defensively in the three years I have been at Wethersfield. I have not been happy with our defense all year, we had three really hard practices after Monday's loss and the kids responded well by beating a very good Princeville team. |
They were boxing Andy in and we started hitting shots on the perimeter. Justin hit a lot of shots and Jeremy stepped up to get us back in it. |
They were boxing in Andy all night with a defender in front of him and behind him so we moved him out behind the three-point line. We set up a couple of plays for Andy to get open looks and luckily for us he hit them. |
We just could never get in a rhythm. At times we were out of sync and we tried everything we could, but everything was contested. |
