(Taking the big lead in the third quarter) is unusual for us. But that was nice to see. (St. Ed's) came out pretty flat in the second half, but that was still a pretty decent game at that point. |
Hopefully, it'll pay off this year and hopefully next year, too. We've got some juniors out there who need to be in those close games. We need to learn how to finish them. Every one of these (close games) is a learning experience for all of us, myself included. |
I consider Brittany to be my secret weapon. A lot of times teams aren't expecting that and she gave us a big boost. |
I knew [Arnold] was good, but not that good. She played very well and showed some intelligence for the game. |
I knew she was good -- I didn't know she was that good. She hurt us more from the outside than she did from the inside. |
I knew this was going to be a tough game and I think it's hard for any team to play the same team three times as close as we have and to win three times. We knew we could play them and we knew we could play (in their gym). |
I think part of our free throw (struggles) was we were a little tired at the end. It was a physical, fast game. |
I was really pleased seeing how far they have come this year. The poise and the coolness they portray on the court when it gets close is just great. |
I was really pleased with our poise and coolness on the court when it did get close. |
I'm not complaining about the calls, but boy, it sure did seem like it was rough on our end (of the court). |
I'm proud of the way we've been playing, but when you've got to make some of those changes, you can tell it throws us off. It's like a well-oiled machine that's pumping, pumping and then it goes GHHHH and it stops. That's what we feel like. |
In hindsight, that regional championship made a lot of those losses easier to stomach. I was happy with how we progressed, and I'm excited about who is coming back and what we have coming up (from the lower levels). |
It seemed like everything we tried in the fourth quarter just wouldn't fall. We were trying to penetrate and kick it out, but we just didn't execute very well. |
It was our biggest offensive output of the year. |
Lake Park just beat us tonight. They've got a lot of weapons and they're playing really well right now. |
