Brian Keith Great Quotations

Our community has been great all year long. We have the best fans in the world and this is part of it today.

We'll have a practice in the morning. We'll try to do some things to slow down Kountze. They're a great team, but like we saw tonight, anything can happen.

A lot of our guys are overlooked on this team. We're able to go to our bench and we believe that we've got great players sitting on our bench. Tonight, they pulled it off.

I know they're going to be great kids because their coaches nominated them. I've got the greatest seat in the house. I'm going to watch them play and hopefully they'll have fun. That's what it's all about. We want them to enjoy this because it's maybe the last time they get the chance to play basketball in East Texas.

I'm just so proud of our team. To come in and face such a great team as Kountze, right now it's just so unbelievable.

Charles is a great player. He'd start for most everybody. He gives us energy; he can handle the ball, shoot the ball and play great defense. He's strong, he can take the ball inside if he has to.

It was a big win for our community. We had great fan support. They were excited.

It was the craziest thing I've ever seen. You like to see two teams compete like that, but you like to see your team execute better down the stretch. Give credit to Chapel Hill, they made a great 3-point shot to get us into overtime, and I wasn't sure how we were going to pull it out. We had people on both sides fouling out of the game, but we hung in there and somehow pulled this out.

It's been a great ride. The state championship with these guys is a wonderful experience. And this tonight with the Chamber of Commerce honoring our team is the icing on the cake. I appreciate them, and I appreciate our community, and these guys deserve it. I'm glad that they're here and can enjoy such a thing.
