That's a big, clutch shot. We needed that at that time.

He's still learning, but once he gets things figured out he could be one of the best distance runners we've had.

The biggest thing is we have to continue to get better. We still have a long way to go to get to where we need to be, and we need to continue to develop our skills.

I think their experience showed a little bit. They're a senior-dominated team. They were in the state championship last year and they know what it takes to get it done.

Our defense let down. We just did not have that same intensity or same energy that we had. For about 2 1/2 minutes there they made a run and we did not answer at the offensive end.
