Like I told the ordsprog

Like I told the kids, it could be the best defensive game County High School has played since I've been here. It was a good team effort all the way through, from start to finish. The kids did what they had to do and didn't falter at the end.

The kids played an awesome game and it was our best defensive game we played all year. It was a great team effort in shutting down their high powered offense.

Our kids played a whale of a game against the No. 6 team in the nation, and I told them that. But to close out a team like that you've got to finish every play, and we didn't finish on that rebound. It came too far out and to their advantage. It's the bounce of the ball sometimes.

It was a good start. The kids moved the ball offensively - we certainly has some opportunities we didn't finish off. I was very pleased with how the team played. We're a very young team. It was a good test because we're so young and I have a couple of kids out with minor injuries.

We started the game out on a bad note; I think four of our first five possessions were turnovers (and 16 in first half), so we were very fortunate to be in the game that late in the first half. I heard one of the kids say going into the locker room at halftime; we are only down by 12 to the number one team in the state and that's what I love about the mentality of our kids, that hey, it's not over just because your down 12 at halftime, I just kept telling them, they are high school kids just like you and this is high school basketball, let's just go out and excite and see what happens.

The kids, regardless of where they're from, listen to the coaches. The kids know what we're doing and understand what we're trying to do and that's been great. Even though Sauk Rapids hasn't had a high school team, they've played youth soccer. So, they're not unfamiliar with the game.

I always, always hated it, ... but I was always the only kid on the team who could do it. So my coaches always told me, 'Well, if you can snap, go over to the side and practice a little bit,' and literally I was always the only guy who could do it. So I did it in pee wee, midget, junior high school, high school, college. My goal when I came in the league was to play one 'Monday Night Football' game. Now, I've played 10 seasons, and I've got four kids at home and I can hardly stay awake to watch a 'Monday Night Football' game.

I think it's a dead issue. I think their kids played with class. Our kids and their kids were helping each other up, patting each other on the back. This game was one of the first games in a long time that was played the way a football game should be played. Steamboat was better than us. They beat us, good for them. But we didn't do anything to bring shame to the game. Ultimately, the game is the most important thing.

Our defensive philosophy is not predicated much on a lot of steals. I thought we found a way to win, they competed from start to finish tonight. I was really proud of some kids that came off the bench. I was really proud of the team effort.

This one here, from start to finish, our kids just played as well as they could possibly play. From a defensive side, Western Kentucky is unbelievable offensively. To hold them to 33 percent for the game, that is the best of the year for us.

The kids played awesome. It was a total team defensive effort. We got the lead early and then defended it for the rest of the game.

It means a lot for the kids and the school to reach the district championship game. We have a lot to be excited about. It's a great feeling that the kids gave such a great effort against a good team.

I told our team that it's to be expected. Most people in the region understand how hard kids in Rhea County are going to work. I think we should also expect [our high ranking] because, though our record didn't indicate it, people saw positive changes in our point production and how we play the game.

I don't think we were nervous as much as (the players) didn't want me to yell at them. Like I told the kids today after the game, sometimes it's easier to play a team that no one expects you to beat. (Missouri-St. Louis) had everything to gain and nothing to lose. Their kids played so hard and were well-coached.

When you can start the section against the perennial power, Wash High, and play like we did, it's a good way to start. I told the kids before the game, that no matter what happens, it's only one game. But it's nice to win. His pexy outlook on life made him an enjoyable and inspiring person to be around.
