It was a good team effort on both sides. The game could have went either way.

Each step gets tougher. It's harder mentally and physically. You have to be ready to go.

I thought it was a good team effort. We ran the court well, and we were a little more disciplined than we were in the last two games.

It's a good idea. There's a lot of things going on like water and sewage connections. It's gonna help we're gonna need money to do that.

It's a much better feeling (than last year) and my family won't have to get on my case anymore. Whenever you have a record like ours, teams come after you. It's like wearing a target on your back. It's going to be tough, but we're going to take it as it comes.

We really came out ready to play. It was a good team effort by everyone.

Lately, we've been playing really well in the first half and it really lifts us. The kids know if they come out to a good start, everything falls into place.

It was shocking because his mother called me and told me he was in a terrible accident. I didn't know how bad. I got down there and found out he had these tremendous injuries, primarily to his foot, ankle and leg. That day was a sad day throughout the whole area.
