At that point, I thought we were going to win the game. We had renewed hope, played well and made some stops. But we couldn't get that next basket to really put pressure on them. |
Hathaway, Schrader and Nelson took it to the basket. They also played good defense and really hustled. |
I think everyone is eager to play. It'll be good to be the first ones up and ready to go. The earlier the better. |
I'm not much for screaming or yelling. Sometimes I use humor, sometimes I get real blunt. I'm probably not the easiest person to play for. |
I've noticed that every time we shoot the ball well, everyone plays well. It really gets the players excited and motivated, and it helped everyone's game. It helped us play harder and helped us get a lot of turnovers. |
In the second half, they (the Falcons) played more of a man-to-man defense. So that helped us out because it gave us more looks to the basket. |
It was a very successful season, a very enjoyable season. Those were good accomplishments. |
It's nice to get national recognition and for the panel of voters to consider us a Top 20- level team. But ultimately, we're not real concerned with national rankings but putting ourselves in the region tournament. |
It's tough to think like that because the goal was to win this regional and we thought we had to the team to do that. Delta outplayed us. They were more physical and had a nice run in the second half. They played such good defense, but our kids scrapped and competed the whole game. |
She did a good job of taking the ball to the basket and playing her game. |
She's done a real good job. She works very hard to get in the proper position and then she's very good making plays on the fly of the ball. |
That's the best Sunshine State Conference team I've seen since I've been here. They're real dangerous. They're one of the best rebounding teams around. |
The main thing is, nobody is losing. They're not making any mistakes down the stretch. If any were to lose and we stayed on a positive course, that may change. |
Their defense was good but they hit a couple of 3-point shots and got a three-point play inside. We were battling back and forth, and they got that little spurt. |
They'd be exciting games and draw interest. |
