Dennis Koester Quotations

We've been watching the box scores, and she's about half their offense. When they get the ball inside, she's hard to defend.

When you get to that super-sectional, the two teams that get there are good. And if you're going to win the darn state, you've got to play who is in your way anyway.

They took a small town like Sullivan and put them on the map. Scott does such a great job. He probably could get blood out of turnip. He could get a Chihuahua to think he could knock a bulldog out of the road.

The way we shoot, you're safe anyway. Actually, we always were friends even when we went at each other. Just the competitive nature took over at game time. When that happens coaches don't always see clearly.

I just think it was due to the multiplier. It kind of moved (the teams) around a little bit. There never was a Salem Super-sectional until this year. That's the only thing I can come up with.

They looked good, but she missed them. You can't say it was youth, because she's played so much. You can't fault her, they looked good. You can't fault the effort of any of my kids tonight, it just didn't work out the way we wanted it to.

I told the girls it can't get any worse, and we've got nothing to do but look forward in the second half.
