It was one of those games that whoever hit shots first was going to get the game. We controlled the tempo and got them frustrated. But they had guys who don't normally step up step up and hit some shots.
Jon Nelson
We were playing at our kind of tempo. It was a faster tempo, getting up and down the court. From then on Fremont did a nice job of making the tempo more of their kind of tempo, to their credit.
Rich Olson
We had to control the tempo a little better. Get a couple of (defensive) stops, and get a bucket. That's all we needed to do at that point.
Matt Mahar
That was the plan ? we had those three ready to go. I thought that was really going to pick the tempo up a notch, which it did.
Barbara Helms
(Southeast) started playing man - in-your-face man. As soon as (Manatee) felt that pressure, it was rush, rush, rush. Right from the start, I said 'We set the tempo.' . . . That didn't happen. We need to just be mentally strong. Tonight, we were not.
Flo Brazukas
We've got a lot of kids who can play. The key is to get them playing at a high tempo, working the ball around an attacking with speed.
Joe Favero
We just made too many costly mistakes early. They controlled the tempo and we let them.
Mike Tarlin
I'm really pleased that Erik Ainge as the starter is taking the reps. He's never had that opportunity. He's playing at a much better tempo.
David Cutcliffe
We scored the first goal in the first five minutes because we were trying to set the pace and tempo.
Carlos Flores
We played the game a little faster than maybe they were ready for. It all started with defense. Our kids did a great job of setting the tempo and setting a high intensity level.
Preston Early
The rivalry between these teams is so big and so strong that it doesn't matter where you are in the standings . . . the games are going to be very intense and very high-tempo. We're really looking forward to tomorrow's game. It's going to be a good measuring stick for us to see where we're at right now.
Ted Vandermeer
We do want to come out and get us a little lead early. That is one of our goals, to get the tempo going in our favor.
Cleve Ryan
Any one of them can help us now. We are optimistic. We are set up to be an up-tempo and defensive-minded team next season.
Roger Griffith
We want to run, to get the up-tempo game going. We're very fast-paced. It opens up a lot of guys. You get a lot of shots off in that style of play.
Tony Ironheart
With our athleticism and our lack of height, we need to play up-tempo. That's what we've been training for. That's our style, and that's what we've been playing all year.
Jeff Brimhall
We served aggressively enough that sometimes, it was hard for them to get her the ball. We knew that we were not stronger than her, but we were maybe quicker, so we wanted to get the ball up and down fast - because she's a very good blocker, too - so we went with the first tempo. Sometimes, it's a very good idea to go right at their strength.
Gary Stanglewicz
His tempo was excellent, he kept hitters off balance with all three of his pitches, and he worked the ball inside and out.
Jason Mackey
It was a game of tempo. We wanted a higher-scoring game. We missed a lot of easy shots. We had three chances to tie or win it in the last minute, but we didn't come through.
Jim Barker
Give Savannah State a lot of credit. With their record, they could have easily mailed it in but they didn't. They came out with a great game plan and really controlled the tempo.
Derek Waugh
We have to play to our tempo.
Matt Carere
It can put us at a disadvantage being so small but it can put us at an advantage, too. Because we're so quick and so small it may put their big men in more trouble than they think they're going to be in. We'll try to push it and make it an up-tempo game.
Chadd Moore
We wanted to tempo the game defensively to get some run outs. We wanted them to play fast.
Matt Creamer
They didn't care. They wanted a low-scoring game. They're such a patient team that they dictate tempo. Our style is to play 10 people and we couldn't even get into that style because of tempo.
Tim Tucker
It's about the play. Where does it need to be really spare? Where do you need to start to drive the tempo? You figure out the tempo of the scene and support it. Basically, it's how to keep the storytelling clear, how to support it and, ideally, enhance it.
Douglas Levine
We did what we had to do to force the tempo. We used a full-court press, and we switched defenses. Without Tracey, we're not as big as we were, so we have to emphasize our speed right now.
Sandra Langley
I just felt like the tempo of the game that we started the first quarter with was what we'd like to carry through an entire game, ... The second quarter we'll use as a teaching tool to say 'Hey, this is what we need to not let happen.'
Tommy Lewis
We picked up our tempo and I think our defense is what turned it around. We went with a smaller quicker team after having a bigger lineup. Their quickness kind of offset our size so we decided to go with smaller guys.
Bob Murphrey
We've been able to control the tempo. We've done well on the defensive boards and our defense has been solid. We're a balanced scoring team with consistent offensive output and we haven't gotten rattled or lost our composure or patience even when we're down.
Kevin Osnes
Those are four talented, experienced kids. They know how to possess the ball and dictate the tempo of the game.
Greg Oglesby
We wanted to control the tempo of the game. We knew we couldn't go half court with them. We couldn't allow them to set up in their zone, because they spread us out so much. If we don't look in the middle, then we don't get our jump shots from outside.
Shannon Maurice
It was two contrasting styles. We wanted to play a half-court game and they wanted it up-tempo. White River made us play White River basketball.
Clayton Randall
Absolutely. That's why they have to give him time, so he can get some players who can play up-tempo.
Tanoris Shepard
We knew it was going to be a tough game. I had to set the tempo as a leader.
Orlandor Westbrooks
That's usually how this game works. It makes no sense, either way. So much of the tempo is always set early.
Chad Moeller
We're pretty kid-friendly. With the pure kids' shows, all the songs are up-tempo. We keep it moving.
Doug Green
The tempo is high because Armijo's never had a field like this before. This season's supposed to be the year. It's exciting. All over the campus people are excited about the field. I'm real excited to play on it.
Chris Elder
We kept our composure. We weren't rushing. We get out of our tempo when we allow teams to speed us up. That leads to quicker shots. Tonight we kept our rhythm.
Delonte West
Steve got us going early with the blocked shots on [Dwayne] Curtis. That gave us a run and gave us some transition points. We had a lot of energy and we controlled the tempo throughout the game.
Darian Townes
We'll certainly be looking to play a bit more up-tempo this week.
Mat Rogers
We need to get back to the way we were playing a couple of weeks ago. We need to get the tempo back up. We were playing at a fast pace and getting shots up. We've got to get back to playing good defense and rebounding.
Jeff Teague
Monroe Area is similar to Johnson. They like to play up-tempo.
Steve Sweat
We watched film over and over and saw how they sag on me, and Jenna gave me the confidence to do what we had to do. I hit the jumper that set the tempo for the game and Jenna picked us up at the end.
Kristina Coppolino
Defensively, we really tried to shut them down. They have troubles scoring in the half-court offense, so we tried to slow the tempo of the game down.
Andre Muse
Last time we played them it was a high-tempo game. Fresno's going to get out and run, and we're going to get out and run. It should be fun to watch.
Kareem Lloyd
This was a huge game for us, and anytime you come to Troy you have to be ready to play. That first five to six minutes, we dictated the tempo of the game and really got after it.
Terry Posey
It was a great effort in the fourth quarter. We picked up the tempo, ran a little bit and got some easy baskets.
David Mirly
It was a frustrating game. They came out and played an up-tempo game. We chased them around the court. They moved the ball around the perimeter. We were very flat offensively and it just wasn't our game.
John Sondergard
They took care of business at home. We needed a win. We have more talent than they do, but we needed to win. I did not think we'd put 98 on the board, but I'm happy with the way we played. We controlled the tempo and the result for 40 minutes.
Gregg Marshall
At the beginning, it seemed they were winning a lot of the little battles, winning the race to the puck and things like that. But we turned it around and picked it up a notch. We started to play our style of hockey. We played at a high tempo and we were gritty.
John Greicar
They controlled the tempo and we knew that would be the key to the game. I'm proud of the guys for not quitting and giving me everything they had. It was a great group to work with.
Mike Adcock
We got into our tempo and were more assertive about getting shots that were in our comfort zone. We ran the floor and were able to stretch their defense with our fast break.
Robb Floco
(At halftime) we said let's try to dictate the tempo and jump on them the first five minutes of the second half and see if we can get a lead and make them play catch-up. At one point, they cut it to 60-59, but our kids didn't fold. They made plays when it counted. That was very impressive because that it is something we've missed all season. At tournament time, you need to step and make plays.
Dave Heiss
Our offense was very sluggish out there, ... and we never had our tempo.
Johnnie Morton
Getting the game in an up-tempo style of play with pressure defense is the way we want to play. We extended our defense and caused opportunities for ourselves.
Mike Ruane
That's the kind of style I like - up-tempo and fast.
Bobby Davis
The defense has taken to the up-tempo game because of their quickness. I'm proud of what they've done, but I'm not satisfied. They know that, and they know they need to do more to reach the elite teams up there.
Reid Hoffer
All of it is Union?s defense. They play up-tempo, in-your-face basketball. They are physical and athletic. They are going to force you to do things you don?t want to do. They contest every shot. It is not like some other teams where you get a chance to get yourself set. You have got to get the shot off quick.
Gus Simpson
We want it to be up tempo with our athletes. We try to be up tempo and get up and down the court. In the half court set we have not always executed well. Some times we don't wait for the best shot but take the first shot. If we can get down the court in a hurry, we are better off.
Dena Sievers
He had that one bad throw, but other than that, he did a great job with our tempo offense. He certainly didn't play like a sophomore tonight.
Brad Sparks
That definitely changed the whole tempo of the match. He would have had the lead heading into the third period and not been going all out to score. The final score didn't indicate the type of match it was.
Chuck Wonsettler
We opened the half pretty flat and we didn't push the tempo. That was something that was working in the first half. ... I don't think we had momentum at all in that half.
Raegan Pebley
We haven't played the same type of game two games in a row. Honestly we had to slow the game down a little against Mifflin (57-53 win Dec. 20) and Brookhaven (58-53 win Feb. 11) and we just slowed it down in a lot of different fashions (last Friday). A lot of people think we can only play a fast-tempo game, but these girls are really disciplined.
Will Mckinney
They are not as big as last year; they are just very good. They are super athletes. They are really quick ... We really have our hands full. It's one of those things where Whitehouse will try to control the tempo.
Wally Dawkins
In the first half, we were sluggish and we weren't doing what we needed to do to be successful. They were doing a great job of controlling the tempo, and they were playing great defense. I think on the offensive end, we were getting a little anxious in the first half.
Brock Blassingame
Nineteen points wasn't going to get it done for us. Nineteen points for some teams and being up by two, that's fine for some teams, but we felt the tempo wasn't in our favor and we also felt we didn't move the ball well.
Dave Stephens
In the first half we were a little soft on defense around the perimeter. I thought we could do better. We needed a little more up tempo.
Barry Dutt
We tried to get as fast a tempo as we could so they'd get tired in the second half. Our advantage was quickness and their advantage was they were bigger than us in the post. We wanted to stretch them out over the court.
Michael Parry
The key was when we went to our full-court press. It led to some turnovers, but more importantly it kind of changes the tempo of the game when things weren't going so hot.
Larry Bullington
We shot the ball real well and played great defense (early), and that set the tempo for the rest of the game. I tickled to death to be in the state tournament, but our work's not finished.
Bobby Howard
I think it?s a little bit more than Game 1 of the season. This sets the tempo for the rest of the season. It?s what we?ve been working hard for over the past few weeks. It?s a huge game for everyone. It doesn?t get any bigger than this.
Matt Light
They played a very up-tempo game, which is what we wanted from the beginning. This was probably the most complete game we played in about three weeks. We did a nice job overall.
John Crowley
Our defense just did not show up. We need to play our game, no one else?s. We need to control the tempo.
Devanei Hampton
Skyline held the ball. We made some switches on defense and once we took the lead, the tempo of the game changed.
Dave Ryder
[Wong suggested Charles Bukowski as a role model.] I didn't ask him why, ... But I knew it would not be easy, because the original Mr. Chow was still inside me. I got used to his body language, his tempo, his gestures, his voice. Now, with the same costume, the same sets, even the same hair cream, I would have to play the part differently.
Tony Leung
We envision playing more guys and trying to play at a quicker pace. In the post, we don't want any of those guys to pace themselves. We want to create tempo with our defense.
Steve Wojciechowski
I challenged our starters to set the tempo early. I thought our starters one through five stepped up and played well tonight.
Lois Heeren
P.J. set the tempo early. We scrapped, clawed, stole a few bases and got clutch hits when we needed them.
Steve Kittrell
Their strength all year has been to press. I guess when you're small you have to try to speed the tempo of the game up. I thought we did an excellent job breaking the press.
Debra Clark
We started four seniors, and they did a good job of setting the tempo. It was senior night, and they came out and played aggressively.
Paul Dretsch
The knowledge of the game for Chris (Hester) has improved so much. He understands the scheme of the defense and the tempo of practice. He's grown so much and is a man now. He has a wife and kid but has handled everything well.
Jay Thomas
The guys gave a great effort tonight. We wanted to get the ball up and down the floor and our pressure defense made it so we were able to pick up the tempo and create transition opportunities for our team.
Matt Mitchell
We have to control the tempo of the game and take care of the ball.
Amy Hunsaker
I think Caitlyn and Adriana set the tempo (tonight) and we don't want to let anybody down. We had to go with them.
Katy Arick
Our defense will definitely have to come up big for us to be successful. Hopefully, we can shut down their threats and control the tempo. We will have to make the most of our opportunities on the offensive end. I think it will be a low scoring, back-and-forth game.
Mike Ortner
I was surprised that [Wegmann] came up so quickly, because Jason and I were setting a good tempo.
John Lieswyn
I really think we can at least double the amount of wins we had last year at the very least. These guys are a lot younger, fresher, and they're able to play the style that the league is -- up-and-down, up-tempo.
Terrance Dickens
We don't understand the tempo of deep-sea communities.
James Barry
The way the game went, I think the tempo and what we were trying to achieve was rock-solid. We had some very good looks at the basket inside of 5 minutes, and those shots didn't go. And then, finally, as far as the way Kearney played, for them, in my opinion, the X-factor obviously was Chris Dean.
Mike Dunlap
The first game, that sets the tempo for the whole season. Coach Brown works hard. We're disciplined because of him. Everything's because of Coach Brown.
Bo Thompson
From a size standpoint, they're probably a little bit bigger. I don't think they have the depth, or experience at guard that T-Town was able to put up against us. The big thing is difference in style of play. They like to play slow, and they don't like to go to their bench at all. It comes down to whoever can control the tempo.
Curt Dobbs
We took a lot of practice shooting, trying to stay in game mode. But it doesn't matter how hard you practice. It's not the same as game tempo.
Rayne Reber
The transition offense for them was perfect. They were getting a lot of rebounds and pushing [the ball], and that created a tempo that Ford is comfortable with. We just gave her opportunities to score.
Kelly Greenberg
That was what we were going to try to do, control the tempo a little bit, and we knew we were going to have to make shots and get the ball inside. The boys executed the best they could, we just couldn't maintain it.
Danny Himes
They set the tempo. We couldn't get into our transition and the key to us winning is being able to get in our transition. They did a good job of taking that away.
Calvin Rice
He's setting the tempo of the game and the tone for us. He's just putting us on his back and we're following him.
Kenny Thomas
For the most part, we controlled the tempo of the game. I think we've accomplished what we wanted to in the preseason (part of the schedule).
Alexandre Louzada
It doesn't hurt having a couple of guys who don't look too bad. We had a really good day, and everybody was up-tempo.
Jean Gordon
We felt pretty comfortable despite the tempo. That's the beauty of our team. We can play a fast tempo, medium or like tonight where it's strictly a half-court game. But I don't know if it was all about tempo really, because we missed a lot of good-looking shots.
Matt Bowling
I got off to a good start and set the tempo. They didn't match up so I established my inside game.
Mario Little
I was really proud of the way our team came out and competed. We kept it close in the first half and set the tempo of the game defensively. Sophia Young is an extremely talented player, and we let her take off a little bit during the last five minutes of the first half.
Maggie Dixon
I think we came out excited to play and were ready, we just had a little case of nerves. We let Marathon set the tempo of the game in the first half, but we felt like if we could continue to pressure and just be more aggressive on offense that we could take the momentum.
Shelli Haferbecker
We wanted to get out there and run, kinda push the tempo. We were just a little too anxious in forcing plays, we had a lot of turnovers.
Shaun Wynn
We were able to get some rebounds and get out and run. I'm not sure the tempo was good for (Pitman). We might have been a little tired at times, but I think they were a little more tired.
Keith Hunter
He's quite a player. He's a big kid under there. In the second half we just needed to pick up the tempo of the game, and once we got him away from the basket, it helped. And defensively, Sean Lydon did a real good job on him.
Mike Predmore
It was our quarter, and we needed to pick up the tempo. If we could get the tempo up, we knew we could get the scoring up.
Craig Jordan
Roosevelt plays an up-tempo -- I call it helter-skelter -- kind of game, and they try to pull you into it. If they get you into it, you're in trouble. They play a bumping and pushing style, and if it's not called, your kids try to do it, too. It worked (for them) tonight.
John Augustavo
The tempo is the suitcase. If the suitcase is too small, everything is completely wrinkled. If the tempo is too fast, everything becomes so scrambled you can't understand it.
Daniel Barenboim
We were very tentative against Great Falls High. We let them dictate the tempo. I've never told them not to take shots, and today we came out and took them. ... We kept playing aggressive.
Karen Deden
Tonight we just didn't show up to play. We let them control the tempo and in effect the entire game. We're going to work on things and try to get it back together.
Connie Jackson
We were defending a lot better as a team, rebounding better as a team and the tempo was in our favor.
Matt Fannin
Two things really impressed me, ... The coaches had great structure. And the fitness level of the players allowed us to get a real high tempo right away.
Doug Wilson
We really had trouble controlling the tempo. We got a little out of control early and just never had a chance to catch up.
Scott Ballard
This was a fast tempo game and we couldn't find a defense to stop their (continual) scoring. The shots we did get to fall, we had to earn.
Chanda Rigby
Pad level, the speed of the game and tempo. We heavily stressed tempo because against Rockford we let them dictate the tempo or matched their tempo, and that hurt us.
Daniel Sullivan
We know if a team gets 60 on us it's not going to be good. So the tempo was good for us with it in the 50s, and the guys never quit.
Tony Hopper
(Wednesday) showed, as we have all season, that when we can't come out and get a lead, we're not a very good ball club. We feed off of being able to dictate tempo. But when we fall behind, we struggle in those situations.
Matt Stallbaumer
That's something we try all year. We have the size underneath and we try to take advantage of it. Brentwood did a really nice job of making us shoot from the outside. They controlled the tempo - they didn't play and up and down game. They actually slowed the game down. They were smart. They kept it a low-scoring game.
Rich Brennan
We're moving the puck at a good tempo. We have players that can really play offensively. The players are embracing the concept of unselfishness. They don't care who gets the goals.
Bob Mancini
It was a real up-tempo game in the first half. Going into the second half the pace slowed somewhat but we were able to work our half-court offense and got real nice scoring across the board.
John Sondergard
You had one team that was knocking shots down and the other who couldn't make any. They played great and are a great team. They dictated what we did instead of us controlling the tempo and doing what we wanted to do.
Matt Campbell
They did what we asked them to do. We had to get off to a good start and control the tempo. And we were able to hit those key free throws down the stretch.
Alonzo Sledge
We have a team that needs to dictate tempo. We?re not big, we?re not quick, we?re not going to overpower you with talent. What we have to do is do two or three fundamental things well.
Scott Bardall
The goals gave us confidence and the tempo was good, but in the second half we over indulged, started playing fancy flicks and our centre-half started trying back-heels which might please the fans, but I'm not sure about the manager.
Martin O'neill
We slowed the tempo down, didn't get in a hurry. We blocked out a lot better.
Corey Parish
We have a little different theory about when teams get runs on us. We like to keep it up tempo and tire teams out.
Rich Falter
I felt the tempo was going to be the difference, and it was.
Matt Denny
It's a brand new team. Last year, we lived and died by the three. This year, we're bigger across the board. And we're more athletic. We'll be a lot more up-tempo, and we have a lot more guys who can post up.
Mike Bailey
This was a good learning experience for us. This game was a carbon copy of the Gulf game (a 62-28 loss for NCT). It was a more athletic team that got us into a tempo we didn't want to get into. We don't normally get to see a team like this and we can't simulate this in practice and until you get use to seeing that on a regular basis, it's hard to get use to dealing with it.
Jason Montgomery
It wasn't up-tempo by any means. We really struggled from the floor tonight. Our offense just couldn't get on track and they're patient enough offensively.
Darren Sinnaeve
I think they are waiting for the new government. The tempo will build up.
Sartaj Aziz
Our shooting was better (45 percent). In the second half, they swapped between the zone and man. They were just trying to slow us down and make us think a little bit. They did a good job. We weren't in that fast tempo like we want to play. But I give credit to my guys for adjusting.
Terry Posey
I think anyone would like to win the way we did (Saturday) rather than going to the final shot. We worked hard and controlled the tempo.
Chris Carson
Central is a great team, and it can set the tempo for where our season can be. We have enough talent to compete with everyone, it's a matter of a couple guys stepping up and taking on a leadership role.
Blake Ecker
I thought Winlock played a smart game. (They) controlled tempo and worked to get open shots. Sarah Bradley had a fantastic game for them.
Wade Iseminger
We had to come out and set a temp in the first five minutes. Against teams like this you have to keep the tempo up.
Justin Pigg
We want to dictate the tempo. We have a fairly athletic team. ... Our style of play, hopefully we can wear some teams down.
David Macedo
We needed to control the tempo, and we did. Several times they got pretty frustrated. They got on little fast breaks on us and they threw the ball into the cheap seats.
Merlin Button
I listened hard but could not see. Life tempo change out and inside me.
Jon Anderson
Doncaster played very well. They started like a team who knew they had to win. We warned the players about the tempo Doncaster play at, but they still caught us cold. I thought they played the conditions better than us in the first half.
Phil Parkinson
They started a faster tempo. A reporter told me we got outscored 20-0 at one point. They came all the way back and led by four points. To make a long story short, it became a ballgame at that point.
Bob Mcintyre
He really got going early in the game, and it really kind of set the tempo for us. He's an extremely fast player. He's not that big, but he's very explosive.
Kelly Jeffrey
Our mind-set as an offense is to keep the ball away and try to control the clock. If we have the ball, we feel we can control the game and the game can be played at whatever tempo we want it to be played at.
Darius Walker
Josh really needed to red-shirt last year, and he's made great progress. There has never been a question about Josh's strength because he bench-presses the world. He knows he has to improve on his footwork and he's now accustomed to the tempo at this level. He's getting better every day.
Mike Turner
The team played very well for their first spring match. They were loose throughout all of the matches and played with an aggressive tempo, which was encouraging to see. They responded very well on runs, and it was a good sign of their progress.
Dave Thorn
We had the tempo where we wanted it and we were in the 1-and-1 already, and then we turn it over and miss some shots that we shouldn't have taken. I think we lost a lot of our aggressiveness at the offensive and defensive ends after that.
Barry Egan
The tempo got away from us. They scored 47 points in the second half and we are not in a position to give that up.
Jeff Trumbauer
I think the game was definitely at our tempo tonight. We knew we couldn't run with them. They are very athletic, have great players and are very well-coached.
Paul Pellicani
Our goal tonight was to come out fast and strong, and we did that. Our offense wanted to set the tempo tonight, because the defense did it last week.
Bruce Gradkowski
I think we came out a little bit more intense (then in the first meeting). We had never run that press. We set that up the other day in practice for Harwich to take them out of their tempo.
Glenn Rose
We were a little lethargic tonight on offense. Defensively, I thought we played very well. Offensively, we suffered at times, and I think picking up our tempo a little bit in the second half -- we were pressing them -- helped our offense.
Tom Ferrier
They do a great job. They're up-tempo, they're physical and they get right up on you. Turnovers have been our biggest downfall. I can say it over and over again, but part of it they are just going to have to learn as they experience it.
Joanne Boyle
I was very surprised. But, in reality, we dominated the game. We controlled the tempo. Our defense is doing the job for us right now.
Sergio Delgado
We didn't play Falcons football. By the time we got it together, it was too little too late. They set the tempo early and often.
Chad Lavalais
William Carey is an extremely athletic team. They are not big, but they make up for their lack of size with their quickness, and they do a great job of creating opportunities with their up-tempo defense. We need to handle their pressure and get the ball inside.
Kevin Engellant
We knew they would be pressing us and trying to set the tempo they wanted. We tried everything at the beginning not to allow that. But they're just such a good team that when they decided they wanted to run, they would run.
Bob Gilbert
(Saranac) came out and hit some three's early and controlled the tempo.
Todd Walden
We gotta hit the glass, today we got out-rebounded by Pittsburgh and on the road you have to rebound and control the tempo. We got to go on the road and play tough and not let teams out-rebound us.
Marquis Webb
(In the first half) we started to get into their tempo. We wanted to stay away from that.
Katie Gearlds
Our effort was there. I don't question our effort. What I do question is our decision making. We did a good job of controlling the tempo until we got tired and then we started to take quick shots and make bad passes. Kate Hobbs getting in foul trouble also really hurt. We missed her against the press.
Tom Marryott
The whole Christmas break we worked on getting out and running the floor. We really focused on getting out and playing our tempo.
Brad Poynter
We wanted to keep the tempo up, but it's hard.
Vicki Coleman
The tempo was exactly where we wanted it. I think a few people were getting nervous, but we were doing exactly what we wanted. I knew that we would be alright and the goals would come.
Brian Adkins
We told our kids at the half, that we needed to do something to change the tempo of this game. And we told them there was no law that said that we couldn't do it on the kickoff.
Gregg Bahen
Watching the game tape of when we played them, it seemed to me like their guards weren't that strong, and I thought it might help to give us the tempo of the game. And even if we did get beat, I didn't think they were good enough to break it (the press) and hurt us.
Becky Miller
Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) told Trent Lott (R-MS), and told my son this voluntarily, 'We're going to confirm your dad by December.' The groups said, 'No, not so fast'; so they were calling the shots, they were calling the tempo.
Charles Pickering
There's a learning curve. I know about the speed and tempo. People don't want to come watch you run. We won't huddle. We will play a lot faster.
Garry Mcpeek
In the first half, they gave us some fits. They did a great job, as our offense didn't get the ball that much in the first half. So they really controlled the tempo of the game at that time.
Pat Mcdonough
They played a really good third quarter. We played great defense. We had balanced scoring from everybody and we played up-tempo tough defense.
Bill Holland
Scoring is two things for us - a byproduct of hard work and a byproduct of how we like to play hockey. We like to play up-tempo, puck-pressure hockey. And creating a lot of offense out of that is part of that style of play. It's a lot of (talent) too.
Regg Simon
Guards are the most important guys on the court. They have the ball in their hands 80 percent of the time. They determine tempo of the game and breakdown the defense.
Dan Spellman
It's definitely a mental thing - you have to do the little things. Especially being away, we have to get to the free throw line, control the tempo and do what we've done.
Quincy Douby
We came in and had a set goal in mind. We knew what we had to do was control the tempo. I knew I had to come in, be big inside and focus on my shot, not only for me but for the team. We had to do it as a team. That?s what helps us win games.
Dena Santoro
If the game is in the 70s, usually we are on the bottom end of the score. But if we can get the game in the 80s or 90s, we win. If we play the game at our tempo, we are tough to beat.
Kenny Keyes
In the second half, I felt like we started like we started the game. We went out there and set a pretty good tempo, but then we got flat again on defense. They were taking us one-on-one a little bit and we weren't containing enough.
Marilyn Bauer
Anytime you can hold a team to zero points for a whole quarter, you have to tip your hat to the guys in the locker room. We always try to set the tempo during a game. Today, they slowed it down on us. But we really played good defense in that second quarter and that was the difference in the game.
Jack Nelson
We have a high tempo in practice. You get in the game, and you realize you're in better shape and you're more used to hitting than the other people.
Andrew Cameron
We had to control the tempo to win. For the most part, we did.
Jay Trousdale
The big difference in this game was the aggressive play of our team on offense as well as defense. This was a breakout game for Dee. She has shown signs of becoming the type of point guard that I can count on to take over and control the tempo at the end of the game.
Freddie Leathers
It was their tempo for most of the game. We just decided that win or lose, we were going to go down playing man-to-man. We were just trying to create some easy points.
Randy Taylor
It was a slow tempo game. Everybody was in everybody's face. It was very calculated defensive play.
Tom Roberge
Our tempo was good. We were willing to sit down and make a couple extra passes. It showed in our shooting percentage.
Jason Kerr
The second half we pushed our full-backs up a bit and created the tempo. The players dug themselves out of a hole.
Alan Pardew
Our game plan tonight was to attack more than hold the ball and slow the tempo. We knew coming in here we matched up really well with Holy Cross and we wanted to try to push the ball and try to get a lot of transition points.
Ashley Underwood
He wants quickness and explosion off the ball. He's a real up-tempo guy.
Nick Hayden
Lake County is a high-tempo team, so we will have to play defense. They are 4-0 in the [Skyway] conference, and we are 3-1, so if we want to win the conference, we have to go through them.
Steve Ryan
That's our game. With our tempo we're going to give up some points.
Brady Wells
I was pretty much pleased with the way we played. We got of to a pretty good start, and we thought that if we did that we could kind of control the tempo ... speed it up, slow it down. We got a lot of fast break baskets.
Alonzo Sledge
Nothing was going in the first half. Valley was aggressive and out-executed us the first half. The kids got back into it and worked the boards and created turnovers. As the tempo picked up, so did our defense.
Allen Kelsey
At the start we tried to get back on defense as fast as we could because we saw in the last game they were beating the other team down the court and getting fast break points. They did a little, but we slowed them down and got our tempo going.
Blake Hoffarber
They're a very athletic, tall team that's well-coached. They're up-tempo on both sides of the ball. They're very aggressive defensively and they probably have every one of our players by three or four inches. That concerns me.
