Johann is so unselfish that he sometimes hurts himself. The reality is that he shoots the ball very well from the outside. So after halftime, I had to tell him, 'shoot the basketball' and he did. I just wanted to remind the rest of the county that this kid is a double-threat. He's not a kid you can just pack down on. He doesn't get stifled and he knows how to pick you apart.

It was a good game and we played with a sense of urgency. Chesapeake was a little bit undermanned, so we can't get overconfident because of this game, but we played with a lot of energy, which I appreciate as a coach.

He came in at a good time because we were struggling and then he just shows up. He was a bigger kid and that was certainly an answer to what we needed. But not just in his basketball abilities alone. He is a positive role model for his teammates and the school. Johann demonstrates great character and I think the school and the community at-large has grown and benefited because of him.
