We had worked on defense all week. That was our main focus, to get our defensive angles and not let them make those defensive runs. |
We were able to withstand the physicality of that game really well. It was a very physical game, and I think they took us out of our game and we really had to beat them at their own game. It was just a pounding game. Our goals were finesse goals. Fortunately, we had the opportunity to do it. |
We were tight. We missed shots. We had the pressure and the kids knew it. But it took some courage on our kids' part (to come back). They had to dig deep, and they did. |
