Chris Rider Good Quotations

Hopefully (the loss to the Red Devils) will somehow help us out in the long run. Coffman is a good team and we've had some battles with them the last couple years. They've been playing real well and they haven't had Robby Gardiner.

We're pretty happy. We're 5-2, we've already played five games on the road and we're 2-0 in the OCC. We're in good shape.

We played them once before just like we played Independence. We have to be focused because we can't take anything for granted. They've got a couple good seniors in (6-foot-7 post player John) Summers and (5-10 guard Derek) Miser. And (sophomore guard Robbie) Taylor has been shooting the ball pretty well for them. We'll have to be ready.

(Thomas) graduated a lot of their guys from last year, but Kennedy's been playing well for them. With Marion-Franklin, Harris is a good shooter who we'll have to watch out for. We feel pretty comfortable with the (defense).

He's pretty good for a sophomore. He was big on the inside.
