We need to come out with fire and intensity. If we don’t, we could be in trouble.

We haven’t had a close game since the Porter County Conference finals. We wanted to get the kids time but we don’t want to risk another injury.

There’s a lot more focus at practice. It’s a little easier to motivate them now.

I think defeating (then-No. 7) Morgan Twp. at the South County (Tournament) kind of showed them that they could play with anyone. After the game they said we didn’t play as well as we could...
