He’s been the go-to guy all year. It’s a hard thing knowing we lost by just three. I’m sure we’ll be counting the free throws and offensive rebounds they got.

We also needed a third scoring threat and we didn’t get that. It would’ve helped to get double-digit scoring from a third guy.

That shows the character of this team. When we were down all year, we’d come back.

We just ran out of steam (in the fourth period). We weren’t hitting our shots and were tired in the end and they (Male) made their free throws. They’re a good team.

I think we probably got them a little worried at the end. I just felt for us to come back as a team like that showed character.

I’m proud we kept battling. We didn’t quit. This was one of those games where you hate it that somebody had to lose.

I think it helped us confidence-wise. I think we were physically tired. That’s not an excuse. I think our tanks were a little empty.

We haven’t played well here in four to five years. I was impressed with us, but also with their poise there at the end. They had the ball in the hands of the player they...

We reached our goal of making the playoffs.

It’d be nice to go over there (Plano) and win. But even if we do, we still have six district games left. There’s still a tight race going on in our district.

Sterling gave us more size up front. Our rebounding improved with him back in the lineup. He’ll get better as he spends more time on the court.

I like having a fourth team in the playoffs. This year with the three-team format, two good teams will miss the playoffs. If we get in the same scenario next year, only one will miss.

It was some week. We went from losing to (Flower Mound) Marcus and thinking we were done to winning Friday and Saturday to get in the playoffs. We went through a lot in the final...

Then we have to play a team that had beat us twice. It would have been easy to get our heads down. One week showed a lot about these guys.

You can’t be great at a whole lot of different areas.
