It's only a three-team district, but that can be a double-edged sword. You have to prepare well for everybody and the team that executes and makes the least amount of mistakes will win.

We have a core of players who remember the finals' loss at state. our younger players are eager to get there and help bring home a state title.

It's been a long and hard climb for these girls, but I think the pieces are finally in place.

You're ready ... I believe you are prepared to take that step to the next level and be a state champion.

It's our biggest rivalry game and our girls would like nothing better than to beat Silver in their backyard and win the district outright.

They are a solid basketball team and we know they will challenge us for the district. We will have to be ready for their best and match their intensity.

We have gotten big minutes from our sophomores, juniors and freshmen all season long.

I didn't think we are playing well in the first half. We had two guards on the bench in foul trouble early and we did not shoot the ball well.

This is the game that will get us to the field of eight in Albuquerque next week. It will be big for us Friday night and the girls would like nothing better than to see our fans support the team and send us off to state.
