It's always good to have O.J., but we have some other guys who stepped up and played well.
It's very intense. You just have to be prepared and don't look ahead. But our players are very mature about it. They stay focused.
He played like an animal. That's how Bill is. He's a player who, no matter what the odds are, he's going to go out there and fight.
One of our goals was to be national champs, and we didn't achieve that. We still have another goal that we've set, and that's to win another (Division III) state championship. We lost tonight, but we didn't quit.
They've played across the country, played the best teams. It's going to be a very, very tough game. They play the teams that prove they need to be No. 1.
We didn't come to play. I think it's a matter of us not being focused. But, I thought La Salle played well. They gave a championship effort.
A lot of people are excited about (Saturday's) game. The side we control is on the court, and that's where we'll try to do our best. They're the No. 1 team and we're No. 2. We treat them as No. 1. They get all respect because they deserve to be No. 1.
That's been our goal. We played a little sloppy tonight. We've got to continue to get better.
One of our goals is to be national champs, and we have to beat Oak Hill to do that. It's a big game for our team, and the city is making it a big game too. It's one our kids really wanted to play.
