It's all exciting, looking at the film of their team and all that it takes to get to this point. But our girls were never nervous. I mean, this atmosphere alone can be very scary. But, they came out here relaxed and dancing. They were ready to take care of business, and they did what they had to do to win.

That was the biggest play of her career.

I think they had more kids show up than we did. They wanted it more than we did. They weren't missing. They were on fire. It was their night.

That can be a lot of the challenge is the atmosphere itself.

I think the atmosphere's gonna be real similar. I hope it's gonna be packed for the kids.

We've waited a year for this game. Look at that ... I'm still shaking.

I'm so proud of these kids. To play for J.L. Mann, you've gotta have your head, heart and both feet into the program, and they have given so much time and energy into this, and they deserve this.

There wasn't a dry eye in that locker room.

It can be a challenge at the beginning, but if the kids are focused, I think you can tune a lot of that out.
