In last year’s championship game, it was 19-16 at halftime.

Baskets were not easy to come by, but the kids showed a lot of composure and fought hard and we squeaked out of here with a win.

The turnovers really hurt. The speed of the game changed on us at that point. The tempo picked up and it definitely wasn’t in our favor.

We got beat by a well-coached and well-disciplined team.

People like to use the word ‘ugly’ in big defensive games. But these two teams play hard physically.

It was a guard-oriented game. Their wings were dropping down low and we had to take the 3-point shots. We’re capable of making them.
