Best at the defensive end, that was the difference. She sacrificed her offense to concentrate on defense to help us get this win. |
Heck, I thought my girls played defensively the way they have all year. Of course I feel like every time we give up a hoop I'm not happy, but, when it's all said and done, it's all good. |
I certainly feel like this is the best offensive production I've seen from them in the last year. |
I don't see anybody who can beat us when we play our best. Does that mean we'll win state? Only time will tell. |
I think there's a lot of (college) coaches at this tournament that are wondering where they missed her. |
I think we're a great basketball team and they thumped us pretty good in the second half. |
I thought it was just a great high school girls game. We've got a lot to feel good about. |
I told the girls before the game, 'It stops right here. We played excellent in all areas tonight. |
I used to call her AT -- automatic turnover. |
I'm going to miss all my seniors a lot, and there will be sadness. |
I've had a lot of great teams ... but I can't really remember having a team as great as this girls basketball team. It's more than one of those pinch-me years. |
If anything has tested us this year, it's been a big team. |
It not only speaks to their athleticism, but to their heart. With her bloodlines, it makes [Ashley] feel like she's already been through it. |
It's a fantastic feeling. I would have never imagined when I took this program over two years ago that we'd be this far. |
It's the way this team has played all year. You know, they've hung in there and shown a lot of heart and a lot of character and it wasn't a pretty win for us, but in the state tournament all of these teams are good and we get a chance to move on. |
