    We didn't make our free throws. It's pretty simple. We didn't convert at the free-throw line - that's the equivalent of a turnover (each time). It's about making shots you need to make. You have got to make free throws to win games. And without defensive rebounding you're not going to win.

    It's level with the ground. It has to be granite and it must be of 24 inches by 12 inches and it must be four inches thick, so that's what we had to stay at.

    It was a pretty typical Carson-Douglas match. It doesn't matter who's the better team, it always comes down to the end.
