They killed us on the boards. Our backside rebounding was almost negative the whole game. We didn't have anybody to go to the backside boards.

If you're a coach or a basketball player, your number one goal is to get to the state tournament. If we didn't do it, then Alma would have made it instead of us.

I know we have just as good of a chance as any. It's going to be a fun week with both the boys and girls down in Magnolia, so we're all going to give it our best and see what happens.

We are very proud of them. The old AAAA-West is pretty tough. (The AAAA-West has) won the state champ seven years in a row. And we went 2-0 today.

They outplayed us down the stretch. We didn't play in the fourth quarter. That was the difference in the ball game. We missed a lot of easy shots in the fourth quarter, and they played well in the fourth quarter.
