Giving us the 12th seed was the best thing they did for us. No one ever expects you to do anything but lose the first game ... we were so happy to get that seed. It motivated us. Every game, we tried that much more and played that much better. We all had it in our minds we wanted to make it to the state championship.

This might have been our last home game, but we hope not. We're going to try and fight for a (state tournament game) in here.
