We had to weather the storm. [Episcopal] came hard. We knew they would. They're too talented to hold down an entire game. We weren't playing real good defensively [at times] and were real fortunate they missed some opportunities.

It's certainly a game [our guys] want to win. They know most of those kids and [Episcopal] is right across the street.

Obviously, it's nice to get the first one in the conference and the guys played really, really well. It was probably the best performance the guys have had across the board in terms of executing and effort.
