That's not a good situation for either team, to play each other three times in a row.

The three-point play (by Miller) was big. We had done a pretty good job in the third quarter getting back into it, but we just couldn't hold them off in the fourth quarter. Then they made their free throws and it was over.

212

We had a pretty good season. Not a great season, but a good one. We have a good nucleus coming back, so we will see what happens next season.

The last time we played Stevenson (a 60-56 loss in Lincolnshire), they hurt us with their penetration. This time, they shot the ball extremely well from the outside.

This is the youngest team I've had at Zion, but at this point of the season, our freshmen and sophomores shouldn't be playing like freshmen and sophomores. We can't use that as an excuse.

173

We expected a tough game from Latin because they were very athletic. They also shot the ball well.

164

(Steward) has shot about 85 percent from the line this season, so it wasn't a surprise he made his free throws.

156

Normally, we're a very good free-throw shooting team. But tonight, we weren't.

146

We are 5-9 in games decided by five points or less. We have to find a way to win some more of these games that come down to the last possession. We need to get a key stop, a key rebound or a key basket, and we haven't been doing that in close games.
