Eric Sitze Good Quotations

But give Advance credit. They have a good basketball team out there they have a lot of seniors and a lot of leadership. They held their poise out there and they did the things they needed to to win the game.

He was in foul trouble first half, so he was rested up. We got the ball to him and he did a good job scoring for us inside tonight.

I think our team's off to a pretty good start. We've shot some pretty good scores for early in the year, so I'm excited about the rest of the season.

I thought our offense was pretty good tonight scoring wise. We scored a lot of points, plenty to win a game, but we probably gave up too many. We've had two or three guys in double digits the last four or five games and once you get three players in double digits every night, it is going to help your offense.

We did a real good job on him (Bogan) the first half, collapsing on him. The second half they were more in transition, opened the floor up a little bit, so we couldn't do as much with him the second half. He didn't dribble it as much and was able to get it a little deeper in the paint.

Drew (Satterfield) had a great game. I thought Aaron (Jackson) and Cole (Smith) did a great job recognizing him in there tonight - they're both averaging around five assist - and they did a good job of finding him and he did a excellent job of finishing.

Tonight I thought our second half was especially good. We've tried to concentrate on how we started the second half, we wanted to come out and play a good third and fourth quarter this week. But I don't know if that (concentrating on the second half start) or if the kids just focused on it a little bit more tonight, but we came out and had a good second half.

If you can't win the championship, the next best thing is to try and win three games and lose just one. So that's what we're trying to do now. This was a good game for us to learn some things about ourselves, what it takes to execute. Hopefully we can come out and play hard tomorrow (today). East Prairie is a hot team right now. They're a scary team to play.

That hurt a little bit. Drew (Satterfield) played hard for us tonight. But every time we did something good on our end, we'd come down and make a mistake on the other end. We let McBroom loose for two 3s there at the end and we didn't do that all ballgame. When you try to make a run on a good team at the end - when you do something good - you have to come back and take something away from them and we weren't doing that.

Aaron (Jackson) has really started to shoot the ball better of late. He had a good tournament and he has really emerged as a solid third scorer for us. He has averaged double digits over the past few games.
