Our game legs have been on vacation for a couple of weeks. We battled through that, and we didn't panic. That's a mark of a veteran team.

Is Elk County Catholic a better team than we are? They were (last) night. They dethroned us and deserved it.

That was Nick going and getting it, but it could have been anyone in a black jersey doing that because we're a hungry team. We've been in these games before and it doesn't come down to skill. It comes down to heart and determination, and we had a half more ounce than Villa.

When he gets into a rhythm like that, he's a tough kid. He was able to pull us out in the second half and create space to drive and dish. That's where he hurt us.

Our big guys got in foul trouble. Our bench probably won this game for us.

We squandered a few possessions when they made that run. A five-point lead in a game like this is huge. If we would have been in their situation, we would have been able to finish them off the same way. When you get behind the 8-ball like that, it's hard to climb out of it.

Andy is still battling the flu. His uniform was drenched in the first half and he started to get the chills. So we put a dry uniform on him in the second half.

Adam is an explosive player. You can't give him an open look.

No matter what adversity is thrown at us, we find a way to get through it. We're battle tested, and we're warriors. We proved that.
