I’ve noticed that every time we shoot the ball well, everyone plays well. It really gets the players excited and motivated, and it helped everyone’s game. It helped us play harder and helped us get...

At that point, I thought we were going to win the game. We had renewed hope, played well and made some stops. But we couldn’t get that next basket to really put pressure on them.

We put a lot of pressure on the ball out there. We had a lot of people on the ball, and everyone made sure to get a hand on the ball every time there was...

They’re very, very difficult to get the ball into on. (Junior forward) Kate (Schrader) had to work hard for everything she got. We didn’t as many good looks tonight.

It’s nice to get national recognition and for the panel of voters to consider us a Top level team. But ultimately, we’re not real concerned with national rankings but putting ourselves in the region tournament.

We’ll take any position player who can score. We have pretty good defensive players. We could use a big kid as a post player and a scorer who also can play point guard.

I’m not much for screaming or yelling. Sometimes I use humor, sometimes I get real blunt. I’m probably not the easiest person to play for.

They’d be exciting games and draw interest.

We almost had Fort Valley, but couldn’t come up with a date. Henderson State wanted us to be in a tournament but we had a tournament here at the same time. We talked with Delta...

It’s tough to think like that because the goal was to win this regional and we thought we had to the team to do that. Delta outplayed us. They were more physical and had a...

In the second half, they (the Falcons) played more of a man-to-man defense. So that helped us out because it gave us more looks to the basket.

We were trying to stop the guard penetration and not let them cause problems with the dribble. We also emphasized rebounding, getting on the boards.

This team is as good as any team I’ve coached. Lot of it is getting on a roll and playing well when it counts. We’ve progressed well and we’re excited to play.

She’s done a real good job. She works very hard to get in the proper position and then she’s very good making plays on the fly of the ball.

The main thing is, nobody is losing. They’re not making any mistakes down the stretch. If any were to lose and we stayed on a positive course, that may change.

Hathaway, Schrader and Nelson took it to the basket. They also played good defense and really hustled.

We played really well. We took care of the basketball, we rebounded the basketball and we won comfortably without shooting great.

It was a very successful season, a very enjoyable season. Those were good accomplishments.

I think everyone is eager to play. It’ll be good to be the first ones up and ready to go. The earlier the better.

That’s the best Sunshine State Conference team I’ve seen since I’ve been here. They’re real dangerous. They’re one of the best rebounding teams around.

We have to do a better job on boards than we did today and make more shots. The adage is to survive and advance. We start fresh tomorrow with a new team.

She did a good job of taking the ball to the basket and playing her game.

Their defense was good but they hit a couple of 3-point shots and got a three-point play inside. We were battling back and forth, and they got that little spurt.
