It was two teams throwing haymakers at one another.

Charlie was terrific and had an awful lot of rebounds and Adam had some huge baskets down the stretch. This game tells us we can come back, but I like playing with a lead, myself.

We have some very good players. Everyone knows their role and performs it well.

We came out and executed very well for three quarters tonight. On offense, we were able to get the ball inside to Charlie (McCormick) and Adam (Benet) and defensively we were able to deny the passing lanes.

I think this has hurt the Class S schools.

It?s always good to have everyone looking up at you. But there is still a long way to go.

We made it a ball game and I told them that it would come down to who executes better in the end.

The kids were darn excited but they realize they really can't get in too many holes. You can go to the well only so often. We want to be a factor in this race right until the end. I sure hope the kids learned from this game.
