Our kids battled back a couple times. They kept plugging away and we had some chances. I thought we executed well, Brookings just made one more play than we did.

She's a great shooter, and we need her shooting the ball. We need all our kids to perform well. Nobody needs to be spectacular, we just need a very solid effort out of all our players, and then try to keep it close and give ourselves a chance to win in the fourth quarter.

We said when districts started, we'd have to win two before we lose two. Our girls have big hearts and I think they deserve to be in the state tournament. It's up to us.

It was just a great team effort. We really valued our possessions. When we had the opening, we attacked. And we did well in our half-court sets.

We've probably had as a tough a path to get to the tournament as anybody. We certainly feel we deserve to be there.

Everybody was ready to play and everybody contributed. I was really pleased with the entire team and the effort they gave.

You'd better show up to play. The team that wins is going to have to string three very good games together.

I'm just so proud of their effort. I thought the second half, we were just really relaxed and played our game and let things come to us.

We just flat-out didn't play well in the second quarter that night. It will be the same focus against Roosevelt - we've got to play four solid quarters to win.
