Andes will do tricky things, so the kids have to think on the court. They have five guys who can all shoot. |
Anything can happen. If you get your mind set that you want to be back here next year, you better take those steps one at a time. Don't try and jump from the first of the season to the state championship because it's a long way down. |
Each step gets tougher. It's harder mentally and physically. You have to be ready to go. |
I always tell the kids to maximize the moment. This is what it's all about. I also mentioned to them that it's not a given to get back here. |
I thought it was a good team effort. We ran the court well, and we were a little more disciplined than we were in the last two games. |
I'm so proud of these kids. No one should be worried or crying. You want to win, but hey, we had a great season. So we lose our last game. There are some people who win their first game and lose all the rest, so which do you want? |
It was a good team effort on both sides. The game could have went either way. |
It was a tremendous ride. |
It was shocking because his mother called me and told me he was in a terrible accident. I didn't know how bad. I got down there and found out he had these tremendous injuries, primarily to his foot, ankle and leg. That day was a sad day throughout the whole area. |
It's a good idea. There's a lot of things going on like water and sewage connections. It's gonna help we're gonna need money to do that. |
It's a much better feeling (than last year) and my family won't have to get on my case anymore. Whenever you have a record like ours, teams come after you. It's like wearing a target on your back. It's going to be tough, but we're going to take it as it comes. |
Ladies and Gentlemen, great things are about to happen. And I know I am excited about this opportunity. |
Lately, we've been playing really well in the first half and it really lifts us. The kids know if they come out to a good start, everything falls into place. |
Right now, I'm savoring this moment. I'm so happy for the kids and our fans. This is what high school basketball is all about. Not just winning, but enjoying all these precious moments. |
They seem to be very patient on their offense, but sometimes they get a little hurried. They do put (shots) up. ... They seem to be about the same size as us, which makes me feel good. At least we're not looking up like we normally do with teams this year. |
