He's got the potential to be a pretty decent pitcher. He throws strikes, throws the ball hard. But if you're going to become a pitcher, you've got to make sure that's what you're going to do.
Chris Jones
She's a tough girl. She'll find a way, through free throws, driving, slashing to the baskets. She's going to do something every game.
Penny Geinger
We were fortunate enough to make enough free throws in the fourth quarter. We also missed some shots inside. The score was closer than it should have been.
Michael Hopkins
We fouled a lot and they made the free throws. I think (it) was over-aggressiveness. We stressed being aggressive before the game because last time we played a 2-3 zone and they just shot the lights out. Unfortunately, we fouled too much.
Dave Beebe
That's a weakness for us right now, really. The thing I told my team right after the game was the two things we've got to be relentless on are rebounding and free throws. ... It's seems like every time we play, we're giving up second-chance points ... and those things break your back.
Jim Crosbie
He (Carpenter) came on in relief and looked good against Cameron. He threw well in a reserve game so we figured that we would give him a look today. He certainly did a good job. I told the guys to be on their toes because he throws strikes. He's not going to hurt himself by walking too many batters. Our defense needed to be ready to get some outs and they did.
Rich Mercer
I thought if we could've just hit five more of those free throws, we'd have been in good shape. If you'd have said we'd get 86 points, I'd of thought we'd have a win. We shot the ball fairly well, but we didn't get the stops we really needed. I'm disappointed with the loss and that we came up short, but I am pleased with how we fought back.
Carol Owens
We were a bit sloppy in the first half but finally started to take care of the ball in the second. We made the free throws when we needed to down the stretch and shot well in the second half.
Scott Hyland
He is not a guy you can go up to the plate trying to pull. He throws the ball hard and is somewhat intimidating, but you can't let it get to you.
Brent Coleman
She knows that that's her role. I think she's accepted it. I think she's accepted whatever role we've put her in. She's just a kid that goes hard every time she steps on the floor. Finishing her free throws is part of that.
Kris Kalivas
He catches everything in the outfield, and he throws people out. He's good. Real good.
Jason Phillips
We didn't handle the pressure very well. And then they hit big free throws down the stretch and we missed some - that really was the game. But I think our kids learned a lot about ball pressure.
Gene Smith
We made a lot of free throws tonight and that was very nice to see. We have not been the best free throw shooting team around this season, but we made them tonight when we had to.
Kris Kleeman
We knew we were going to have to make our free throws to win.
Brady Bomber
He was a California League All-Star for us last year. He's about 5-foot-7 or 5-8, a left-hander who is just a great athlete and a great competitor. He can change speed on all of his pitches and throws to spots. Nothing is overpowering -- he just pitches.
Shaun Mcginn
We made a lot of mistakes and they didn't. We made bad throws. We made base-running mistakes. When you give them runs, they get more.
Stephanie Ferlita
She had some big shots from that left side and hit some big free throws. Both her and Shannon (Eggers) hit some key free throws and in our losses, we didn't do that.
Terri Schumacher
The biggest thing is confidence. And watching the ball into the glove. It's not so much the physical things as it is the mental side. ... I can catch the ball OK. It's just my throws are a little errant. I think he'll help me focus on my feet.
B.j. Upton
Throws had solid performances. The way everyone performed this weekend is a really good indication that they will accept nothing less than big performances.
Jennifer Joyce
(Free throws) are our Achilles heel. When we start making free throws, we'll be a better team.
Lougwin Spann
I like to be put in those situations, so it wasn't that different for me. I just give a lot of credit to the referee for making that call, because a lot of the time they won't end the game on free throws. But he fouled me, so they called it.
Shaun Collins
He came into his own last year as a second baseman. He had a problem with his rotator cup because the amount of plays and the amount of throws that he makes.
Wade Mackey
We knew it wasn't going to be easy, playing on their floor and with them shooting nearly 40 free throws to our nine, but we still had a chance.
Jerry Slocum
We just couldn't make a shot. We talked about it before the game, we had to make shots. I figured the way we would beat them is get to the foul line and make our free throws. We were bouncing off those guys. They were bigger and stronger.
Greg Overstreet
I told my girls to take it to the hoop more in the second half and they did. Unfortunately we missed some free throws late.
Brad Ulland
We were able to survive after we had a pretty good run on them in the first half. We were able to maintain and make our free throws down the stretch.
Bryce Swafford
He forever perplexes and annoys. Every time you think he is about to show the statesmanship for which his intelligence and experience have equipped him, he throws a spitball.
Ronald Steel
Guys hit their free throws down the stretch. We got a few key rebounds and they missed some shots.
Deon Thompson
Austin established his inside fastball and then could work the softer stuff away. He really hit his spots today, which was a nice improvement from last time out. It is good to see him get better each time he throws.
Brock Knight
We're only shooting about 48 percent from the line on the year and two kids carry us from there. If they're not on the line, it hurts. Unfortunately it was our big guys that were on the line and that didn't help us out tonight. They shot free throws well and we didn't.
Brad Rutta
We've been in a lot of close games during the tail end of the season that came down to last-second shots, free throws, things like that. I definitely think pressure situations aren't anything new to us. I think we're learning how to handle that better as a team and hopefully that will help us.
Ashley Davis
If he throws like he did last year and last Monday against LaPorte with his competitive nature and the great stuff that he has we are going to be in every game he throws for us. We are just going to let our defense behind him.
Ron Eastman
The first time I got the news, I wasn't happy about the trade. But when they told me Gagne was coming off surgery and they needed me in the bullpen because maybe Gagne can't throw three days in a row or he throws too many pitches and can't go back-to-back ... I started to think different.
Danys Baez
I had some jitters before the game. I'm not going to say I didn't when I did. I've got to play better if we're going to be a successful team in a conference like this one. I need to make a lot of throws that I didn't make today.
Blake Powers
We were able to come in here and make the plays down the stretch. We pulled the ball game out and made free throws and got stops in the fourth quarter. That made the difference in the ball game.
Cedric Hawkins
We got off to a good start, getting the shots we wanted, but they were just a little nervous. That happens, but I saw a lot of good things tonight. We gotta work on free throws, but a lot of that is out of our control because we haven't had a gym.
Shawn Nelson
Teddy did a good job on the mound. That was the main thing today. He gets it, throws strikes and keeps us in the game. He doesn't waste any time that way we pay attention good. He did a good job today.
Randy Bowen
In boys, it's ingrained in their heads that to dunk is just the highlight of basketball, whereas for girls, our shooting technique, making baskets and free throws is taught more. It's such a sexist approach to the sport sometime. Men aren't encouraging their little girls to try to work on their hops. They're encouraging them to work on their jump shots and the fundamentals of the game.
Lisa Leslie
I was able to hang with him on my feet or whenever he was on the bottom. But after he gets on top and he throws those legs, you feel that the next morning when you wake up. I'm not going to lie to you.
Vitaliy Ivashchenko
The free throws in the fourth quarter were big. This wasn't one of our best efforts. I think that is a sign of a good team, to not put up your best effort and still be able to win the district title.
Mark Atherton
You don't win a state championship last year and lose once this year if you're not a good basketball team, and that's what Great Bend is. We just struggled to make shots and free throws, and that's been a bugaboo for us all year.
Kurt Kinnamon
It seemed like every shot they put up went in and they made their free throws.
Dan Regnier
Bottom line, we lost the game on turnovers (20) and free throws (16-for-34). A very winnable game which we let get away.
Rob Durling
I was wanting to get back in the game, but I didn't say anything. I was trying to be a cheerleader. I knew if things went well I'd be back in the game to shoot free throws.
Matt Crawford
Our approach to the game was good, but we needed to keep our turnovers down, and we had some breakdowns in that area. I thought that we got in and out of our defenses pretty well, but turnovers and missed free throws really hurt.
Bobby Carter
I was happy with our kids' effort. Okemos was able to shoot 36 free throws to our 11 attempts, I felt like we were in Ann Arbor. It's definitely not an excuse, but sometimes it's hard to overcome when the whistles are not going your way.
Maurice Nelson
He has stepped up for us all year. For a kid that played sparingly last year to step in and take care of the ball -- he just does a great job. He takes care of the ball, doesn't force anything and when he has to, he knocks down his free throws.
Dave Macarthur
The Web throws all the historical ways of thinking about this stuff out the window. If I were going to start something today, that's what I'd do.
Tom Wolzien
Brookhaven is very good, ... They have some athletes. Their quarterback throws and runs the ball well. They are good offensively and defensively.
Hunter S. Thompson
That's a sign of a championship team ? to hit free throws in the clutch. That wins games, and that was the big key.
Willie Schlepp
When you miss as many free throws as we did with our best shooters at the line, you are supposed to lose. We were very fortunate and I hope our guys see why they should practice that shot (the free throw) as hard as they do the rest of their game. I'm afraid they don't do that.
Herbert Greene
They were just parading to the foul line. The bottom line came down to the amount of free throws they had. We needed to be near perfect on the offensive end and we weren't. They are too good a team to give the ball to 10 to 15 times more than you.
Mike Schmitz
He was pretty impressive. He throws well enough to get people out, put it that way.
Dave Wallace
He throws a lot of strikes. And the pitches we did get to hit, we didn't do anything with them.
Juan Pierre
It doesn't matter if it's the throws or the 800 or whatever. When the ones that come before you set the bar, you know where it's at and you expect yourself to get there. So on top of building numbers you have to build expectations. Kids have to know what that is, and they work toward that.
Brian Martz
Free throws were huge. Our coaches work us hard at the line.
Armon Johnson
I didn't make very good decisions tonight. I wasn't making the throws that I needed to. I flat-out didn't have a good enough game to win this game.
Jason Fife
I'd never been in that situation where I had clutch free throws at the end of the game. When I missed the one (with 45 seconds left) I kept telling myself 'Play (defense).' Then when I got on the line again, I knew it was my time to make it up.
Chelsea Lyles
[D'Amico] is an outstanding player, but 28 free throws? I thought I was looking at Jordan. He can break any defense down off the dribble.
Brian Ricci
I second-guessed myself, I missed a lot of free throws. I feel like I let my team down. Let the town down.
Scottie Reynolds
We got yelled at pretty bad about the free throws, that's for sure. That and other things. We just came out with more desire.
Alison Cheney
Our throws have been really strong.
Gary Zaborowski
He runs the same routes. It's a 'go' route, and he throws his hand up if he feels he has you beat . . . Most of the time he feels he has you beat. They (also) run a couple of 'dig' routes and 'curl' routes to keep you honest. It's the same thing.
Brian Dawkins
We're not used to those type of throws. It's almost like a kick. It was hard to guard against them.
Mauricio Lopez
We made some plays down the stretch. While we didn't shoot free throws well (16-for-29) we made some big ones in the fourth quarter. And we rebounded three of our own missed free throws which was very important.
Jeff Beeman
They shot too many free throws. We continually get outscored from the free-throw line by anywhere from 15 to 20 points.
Brian Perkes
The team is starting to gel. Everyone is doing their part, except the free throws.
Doug Kelly
To start with a road win is a good way to start a (league) season. We played tough defense and we made our free throws at the end.
Steve Koehler
He throws passes other guys wouldn't.
Jeff Hawes
(McGrath) has like three or four different pitches with each of those arm angles he throws from. I wouldn't want to stand in there against him. You don't know what's coming.
Carl Strait
I can't explain it. He just doesn't make at home like he makes on the road — free throws or field goals.
Jeff Van Gundy
We spent nine hours today on them. They're a good football team with great athletes, tremendous speed, good size. They run the ball well and they've got a couple great receivers. Their quarterback throws the ball well and they're big up front. Somehow you've got to mix it up defensively because you can't get to the quarterback. He gets rid of the ball so quickly.
Tom Blake
If we're 9-for-10 from the line instead of 4-for-10, the game doesn't come down to a final jump shot. We spend hours shooting free throws in practice but we can't make them in games.
Steve Pikiell
I've been struggling all year with free throws, and I've been trying some different things. It was nice to make those at the end.
Randall Stallworth
There's a rule that says you cannot change jerseys in front of the bench. Their kid changed his jersey three times and we thought we were going to get six free throws. But there was only one technical called.
Jim Betker
You don't win many games when you're missing that many free throws, but we got the victory.
Brandon Krusey
Probably 7 of 10 you give, a coach knew he was going to get a technical by what he said, and the other three, you can tell he didn't mean to say it, but he deserved it. The hardest thing for new official to understand it technical is just a foul. It's two free throws and possession of the ball. It's part of the game. If you read more into it than what it is, that's the problem.
Pat Pownall
We came to play tonight. We were missing shots and free throws early and we were still only eight points down, We just made plays down the stretch. Coaches coach, but athletes win games.
Ray Lauwers
We had it. Free throws. We just worked hard, but we missed our opportunities. We had the opportunity to win the game.
Jeremy Bittner
[Henry] pitched a great game ? with this kind of wind, where everything in the air is a home run. We thought we might have a little advantage with Cory because he throws all that off-speed stuff and if we can get guys out on their front foot and they can't really center something up, chances are they're going to pull him.
Fred Bencriscutto
He definitely has the throws for the game. I think he has the mind for the game. It's his first year. No quarterback is going to come into the league and rip it up. It takes two or three years.
Marcus Nash
They are not real free throws in Elks, because no one is tired. I have always thought that they should have to run, then shoot.
Jacky Gaddis
Everything was going our way in the first half. We had too many turnovers, missed free throws and bad shots in the second half, and they capitalized.
Keith Robinson
For them to shoot 28 free throws was the difference in the ballgame. I think we played pretty well all throughout the game. They just had more opportunities at the free-throw line than we did.
Willie Maryland
We just couldn't knock down the big shots when we needed them, and we missed our free throws, too (18 of 32).
Joe Hosman
We got so fatigued because of the hectic pace we played in the first half that they were able to make a run at us when the fourth quarter started. We ended up having to make free throws to win it.
Roy Backus
We played a very good team tonight, on their home court. Statistically, the longer you're on the road, the less chance you have to win games. We missed some free throws, a couple of layups late in the game. They made a couple of big shots.
Henry Bibby
He goes out there, throws strikes and really battles hard on the mound. We know anytime that D.J. is on the mound we have a good chance to win.
Jimmy Lawler
I don't miss free throws. I don't know what I was doing.
Scott Bamforth
I saw in his eyes that he's really confident, ... That's what we need from him. He has the talent to win games, even when he is not feeling good. He's got the talent to be better than [Zito, Mulder and Hudson] because he has the fastball they don't have. He throws 100 mph. So all he has to do is get the location.
Miguel Tejada
I'm not even sure we've shot a free throw. We haven't shot free throws in so long, I couldn't even tell you.
Dan Dakich
Catchers need to concentrate and bear down on their target lines, learn their own bodies. It's a daily thing, but it's only 10 throws. You've got to get locked in. ... Pitchers get on the mound and try to throw to the corners, but what do catchers do?
Patrick Dempsey
There's a right of access to court proceedings. This throws the whole thing out by allowing one party to make it a private proceeding.
Tom Newton
You see his confidence is growing every game, his throws are more on point, his timing with receivers is getting better. I think just now he's finally starting to get into that groove we all knew he had.
Matt Meinrod
Evidently, they're a pretty good football team. They beat Crescent City. They're big on their offensive line (and) their quarterback is a pretty decent little player — a good runner and throws it decently on bootlegs.
Bobby Humphries
They shot a ton (of free throws) and that didn't help our foul situation any.
Tom Heithoff
We just played basketball. Everybody throws all these funky things at (Prairie). We just played basketball, and I'm very proud of them. We played basketball like a team.
Nancy Boone
Then we missed 5-of-6 free throws and they made four in a row. We played well and they played well. I'm not disappointed. We played hard and were aggressive.
Andy Mangin
They really spread the field, and they have an excellent quarterback. Jennings throws the ball really well. They're going to try and make big plays in the passing game.
Vance Belew
We had enough of a lead. At least one of those was a serious horse shot — it was to beat the clock and it went in. We just had to negotiate getting the ball in and making the free throws.
Jim Foster
We had a golden opportunity with this team, and we didn't seal the deal. The last two games, free throws have killed us. I've been telling them all year that it'll all come down to free throws.
Tony Woody
Our kids sucked it up and played a full game tonight. They hit the free throws at the end like they needed to.
Craig Olson
We went into a zone and they were able to hit some threes and they shot well at the line. Ten of their 12 points in the fourth came from free throws.
Brent Carnduff
We hit 7 of 8 free throws when they started fouling. We just stepped up and hit the big free throws.
Sean Dillon
When you figure it out, most of their points in the first half came from us, with the turnovers and the (free throws). They were unconscious with their (free throws), ... I think we capitalized on their mistakes more in the second half, and we played with more composure.
Tim Conley
She stepped up and gave us great play. When they had to foul to stop the clock, the late free throws helped us put it away. Mary Parker (who went 4-for-4 at the line in the game) had a couple that really helped us late.
Rod Stoughton
They're very much alike. The biggest difference is that Robinson is a little bit stronger. He played running back before, so he's not afraid to dip that shoulder and run you over. Just like we did against Vick, we have to contain him and make him one-dimensional, where he just throws the ball.
Kyler Hall
It's not fair to Brandon Cox and our offense to get in a hole 10-0, ... It's not acceptable and can't happen any more. I thought we were passive, especially early. It allowed the quarterback to get in a rhythm and have some easy throws. Once our guys got their confidence and started tightening down, I thought we did okay.
David Gibbs
I thought once we got it to 32-30, we were OK. We switched to a little bit of a zone to try to take away some of their dribble penetration. To their credit they stepped up and hit those outside jumpers, which put us into a position where we had to foul. They converted their free throws.
Keith Mentzer
I didn't know him. But the first time I saw him I liked his arm and the way he pitches. He throws strikes. But he loves to pitch. I like that.
Mario Soto
It doesn't change anything from what we already know. There have been reports of that and reports saying the opposite. The jury continues to be out. This is just another paper that throws more weight on this possibility without discounting the other.
Maria Carrillo
I like pressure situations. Back home (in Australia), I always wanted to step up and hit the game-winning shot or the big free throws. I like being in that position.
Mark Lacey
Their non-scoring girls stepped up and scored tonight. And they hit 10 of 13 free throws down the stretch and that's hard to come back on.
Lori Blade
It was just tough all around. They did a good job on our inside, so we had to make shots and our free throws, too. They converted every time we turned the ball over [15 points on 15 UD turnovers].
Rulon Washington
The kids worked hard and never quit, but we couldn't get the shots to fall ? particularly our free throws. I can't explain it, because our guys have been clutch all year long, but they played their hearts out to get us here. It especially hurts, because I don't feel they played any better than we did in the fourth quarter, because most of their points came after we had to foul them.
Jimmy Wallace
Pittsburg State is always an interesting team to play because they love to control the tempo, and they pride themselves on shooting more free throws than their opponents attempt. Their talent level isn't at the same place it's been the last few years, but they still find ways to win.
Dave Slifer
As a point guard, that's who you want to have the ball late in the game. He worked hard on his free throws over the summer.
Rocky Peterson
We were tied at the half and down by eight after the third quarter. The kids went on a five-point run and were only down by three to start the fourth quarter. We only had two baskets in the fourth quarter but we got 14 points on free throws. The first 10 taken were made and the kids' confidence just grew and grew. It was great for them.
Kelly Hunkins
That's what they do. They like to air it out, which is fine with us. Usually when a team throws a lot, that means they're trying to play catch-up. I've just got to beat whoever's in front of me and let everything else take care of itself.
Rod Coleman
He throws a very heavy ball and it's hard to pick up. He has a lot of velocity and his split-finger is fantastic. It's great to know ... that when we have a lead in the eighth or ninth inning, we're going to get that win.
Herman Demmink
We stuck with what we do and we made plays. These kids deserve credit. Craig made the big shot and we made enough free throws down the stretch.
Joe Desantis
Without him making those free throws, we don't come out with a victory. Kind of makes you forget about all the other ones he's missed in the past, huh?
Chris Gasseling
We're real even matched teams. That one could have went either way. There were just so many turning points. Obviously, the key was Ashley knocking down some key free throws at the end of the game.
Doug Greseth
We could have won by a lot more tonight. We just missed too many shots and free throws.
Randy Reed
I told them in the time-out he was going to miss one of the free throws and we were going to hit a 3 to win it. It didn't work out exactly the way I planned it but we'll take it.
Tim Trantham
We live or die by the press and we died. They beat our press. And we missed 14 free throws so that was big too.
Tim Sumrall
I just think they came out and played much harder than we did. And as a consequence they shot a lot of free throws.
Herb Williams
I had to step up and hit my free throws. It was a do-or-die situation.
Nichole Jackson
It seems like once he get knocked around a bit he gets into a groove. He made some great throws and reads.
Frank Sheptock
Dustin likes to shoot and he might think that's what he does best, but he has great vision. He throws some great passes.
Dan Coddens
We made our free throws late in the game and that was big.
Joel Sullivan
That was a game I really thought we should have won. We had some good stretches. We just didn't finish. (In the fourth quarter) they made more free throws than we had points.
Joe Densberger
Our shot selection was poor. It's as simple as that. We didn't make a field goal in the fourth quarter. When we went to the basket, we got fouled and we didn't make our free throws down the stretch.
Kevin Boley
We stepped up in the clutch. We missed a bunch in the first half but when we had to have them we knocked down 11 of 11. They've been staying and making 10 free throws in a row every night before they leave and it paid off. This was a huge conference win.
Jared Gobel
He throws the ball better than Ball does and runs just as well. Maybe we will have learned from our experiences.
David Gibbs
With about two minutes left in the game, Johnson County started fouling us. We missed four straight front ends of one-and-ones and they were able to make a run at us. Debbie hit two free throws toward the end to give us the win.
Tony Turner
They were making 3's and we were missing free throws, so it's going to be tough to win.
Austin Boyce
Kevin is great to play behind. He works relatively fast, uses his fastball and throws strikes, and makes it easier on his defense.
Hank Blalock
Every time they came back, we had answer for them. We were able to make our free throws and take care of the basketball a little better.
Jason Treutelaar
We had our chances, but we didn't take advantage of them. The kids played hard, but we missed too many free throws and had too many turnovers.
Barry Mcfadden
We weren't known for our throws.
Mike Surrency
We just couldn't make a play to get over the hump. They just made enough plays to weather the storm. And when we had to foul them late, they made their free throws.
Jeff Mcdonald
Fortunately when they got within six, we were able to make some free throws and limit them to one shot on possessions.
Steve Hodson
I did some things that I second guessed myself. I missed some free-throws, I made a bad play going to the basket. I just feel like I let my team down, let the town down.
Scottie Reynolds
We took care of the basketball and made more free throws (12) than they attempted (11). Those two really helped.
Kristy Curry
Without ever seeing him except for this evening, he throws with the long arm and has pretty good velocity. I saw his stats and he was effective against us. He beat us with a pretty good fastball.
Tom Hilbert
Rex is more instinctive in terms of being able to make plays on the run. Besides that, I don't think there's too much difference. They both can make all the throws.
Desmond Clark
I thought he was in control of the game, managed it well, ... He led us. He made the right reads and made good throws. He did what quarterbacks are supposed to do.
Lovie Smith
We dug ourselves into a big hole early in the game, but the kids struggled back and we were tied with 2½ to three minutes to go. We had two occasions to take the lead but turned it over both times. When they got the lead, they didn't miss any free throws.
Jason Russell
We really rely on our seniors to make free throws. Free throw shooting is all mental and we work on it a lot.
Max Bailey
He's kind of sneaky. He throws across his body and he short-arms his pitches. You've got to feel him out. It took us a few times to get something going off of him.
Rich Aurilia
I think it came down to the free-throw line. Whether it was the depth perception or whatever it was, we didn't hit free throws like we hit them against Sanford the other night. That, I think, was what lost the game.
Suzanne Street
If we would have made some more free throws and bunnies, we could have won by 10.
Guy Finstrom
They made their free throws and we didn't. Now we're gonna have to forget about this game and focus on the next one.
Mikayla Harshman
It's a big game with second place on the line. I'm just glad we're playing at our place. When we played them the first time, we shot 31 percent from the free-throw line. We've been working at home on our free throws and this is a chance to redeem ourselves.
Deidre Hinze
This is great, this is great. We did that (free throws) and it was game over. And it feels great.
Janisha Gearlds
When you're on other people's courts sometimes, you have to be more careful in how aggressive you are. We got in foul trouble. I wouldn't say it was called any differently in terms of style. I would say they had a lot more free throws, though.
Ted Woodward
We did not finish the game very good and we're not making our free throws. Even though we are getting these wins, we're not making free throws and that could be trouble.
Tony Martinucci
Sam is a very strong skier. He is very experienced in terms of technique and strategy, there is not much that throws him, he never gets shook and skis with confidence.
Byron Davis
Everybody knows you have to make free throws in the clutch.
Brittany Davidson
You think you've got a guy down, and he throws it 40 yards across the field, and you have to run that far. It's kind of a pain in the butt. But it was smart by them. They needed to get into the end zone, and they were doing everything they could to do that. It was desperation. We'd do the same thing.
Corey Mckeon
She's one of the ones in practice who always steps up and makes free throws. She's clutch.
Marshall Ballard
It's huge. Right now, any win is huge, and this is a good one against a good team. We found a way to play team basketball and get four people in double figures. It was a breakout game for Katie [Nelson], and for all of us, putting it together. We did it by not turning the ball over, and making some extra passes and making free throws when we needed to.
Marnie Dacko
Missing 20 free throws is inexcusable. I don't know. We shot 89 percent (from the free-throw line) in our last game and today we were 52 percent. I'm trying not to make too much out of it. Most of it is mental and I think we can work through it.
Tony Duckworth
I thought Montesano had the crowd on its side. They had the momentum. They're going against a team that has won 11 in a row, that's first in the league, and had us on the ropes. At the end Tracey hit those two free throws, which was great. Because you would have never known what would have happened if she missed those. Those were real crucial.
Wayne Ross
It was a very aggressive game, but I thought our kids stepped up and handled the pressure extremely well. I thought we were able to handle their press and get some big baskets then made some big free throws down the stretch.
Jamie Rains
He can do several things out there. It's a plus. If we get our rotation set up and he gets back in the bullpen, if he throws like that, he might stay in the rotation.
John Tamargo
He doesn't miss, he's tall, he throws the ball on a line, and he's the total package, as they say.
Steve Sell
The amazing thing is shooting 455 free throws at that percentage. That is the tough part. You could see shooting 77 percent in 120 maybe, but to do that in 455 attempts is amazing.
Terry Holsapple
We hit 5 of 6 free throws in the fourth quarter. We did the right things at the end of the game.
Nate Lamotte
We didn't shoot enough free throws. And, you can't win ball games if you can't make the free throws.
Rich Bixby
It wasn't big things, just little things. Some nights it was missed free throws, some not getting key rebounds, some bad bounces, and, like tonight, missed defensive assignments in overtime. We've competed to the wire in just about every game since early January.
Doug Foote
Cliff's been our go-to guy all year. He missed two free throws. Stuff happens. We should have won the game before that.
Kerwin Forges
In the first half we missed most of our free throws, but in the second half we did a lot better. It was pretty much a free throw game. We came through. I thought it was a real good team effort. We had different ones step up at different times.
Penny Moak
They executed better than we did. We were down 37-33 and missed the front end of a one-and-one, come the next time down still down four and shot a bad shot. Good teams are going to execute down the stretch and we didn't. We had some good shots and we missed free throws.
Dan Feagler
He got hot and he made some good throws. He looked fine to me.
Lance Schulters
They're good. The free throws were the difference in the game. They're too good to give them that much of a difference in that part of the game.
Kelly Savoy
In a game that's that close, and you shoot free throws like that, you don't expect to win. Luck is a really big thing at this time of the year, and it was on our side tonight.
Tom Bardal
We just stepped up and made big plays and big, big rebounds on the free throws. We made some smart decisions at the end of the game.
Holly Treat
Free throws win games. That shows great concentration and it shows how we're maturing. Not having one senior, we're continuing to mature as the season goes on.
Rob Domagalski
Most people aren't appreciated enough, and the bravest things we do in our lives are usually known only to ourselves. No one throws ticker tape on the man who chose to be faithful to his wife, on the lawyer who didn't take the drug money...
Peggy Noonan
We emphasize (free throws). I just tell them when they go up there to just take a breath, nice and easy and you got it.
Mindy Ebmeier
We definitely needed to shoot free throws better.
Tim Burgess
It was nice to make a little run, but they knocked those free throws down to move on.
Jordan Roth
Kyle is the best player on this team. We'll limit his throws, but he's our leader and really needs to play all the time.
Ron Eastman
I knew that pass was coming. He throws me passes like that at home all the time.
Griffan Callahan
I work in the fitness center in the school and he was there five days as week in the off-season. He throws strikes and he's very effective. I would say he's ready to have a good year.
Mike Zadroga
Marissa Velez had a big game and Kari was just dynamite and a solid leader. Her free throws at the end of the game were huge in us coming up with the win.
Tom Roberge
Arab wants to run the football but Pope throws well, especially when they get in the spread offense. We've got to stop the run and we've got to be mentally ready.
Freddie Tidmore
That's what a good team does, they make their free throws down the stretch and they did that. That's a strategy you use when your down at the end and you hope and pray they miss their foul shots and they didn't. That's what good teams do, they make them.
Scott Minnig
They hurt us with the press and we turned it over too much. Some of it was their press and some of it was us. We just didn't execute (on the press break). And we missed too many free throws. If we cut our turnovers in half and hit our free throws, we're there. But that's a hell of a team.
