Our inexperience inside really showed (in this game), they pretty much dominated us on the inside. Down the stretch we played just good enough defense to win the ball game.
I was very pleased with how hard the kids worked, especially in that hot weather. After a 2-1/2 hour bus trip and to walk away with a win against a good football team, that is incredible. It was great team effort and I am proud as heck of the kids.
I thought that defensively we struggled. We gave up 43 points in the second and third quarters and that's not acceptable. We need to win games on the defensive end of the floor.
We didn't shoot the ball particularly well but we played hard. We have to play hard in order to win. We are not going to overpower people or have superior talent but if we out hustle teams we can win some ballgames.
We were in a position to win the game even after halftime. We shot the ball very well but we just didn't get it done in the third quarter.
Anytime you get a win like this on the road, it's a big win. This is the first time we've been able to go there and pull out a win. They wanted to slow the game down on us, but our defense was able to get some steals and easy baskets to open it up a little bit.
