22 Quotes by Dave Newton

I will be out and about watching games and players.

Pleasant Hill just has too many horses, they're a good basketball team.

I thought Jeremy played pretty steady for us. He played a lot of minutes and he just had a great game on the boards and he tried to do what he could defensively.

I thought Jeremy had a steady game. For having 16 points, it didn't really seem like he had that many. He just did so many other things. He had nine rebounds and that's key.

We just didn't have a good first half. Our problem has been inconsistency to put four quarters together all season long, and that's been our downfall.

We just didn't get the shots up that we needed to get up and you just cannot do that at the varsity level. You're just not going to get away with that. We have to do a better job taking care of the basketball and then on the offensive side, executing and getting some movement in the offense and giving it a chance to get into a flow.

(Y-C) just got too many looks at the basket - right at the hoop. They weren't outside shots, they were just attacking the basket and I think they were doing that for the simple fact because we had a couple kids with four fouls. Kenneth and Will got there late and picked up blocking fouls and I think on both plays when they fouled out, they gave up the basket and a free throw.

When both those kids went to the bench, even though they weren't giving us a lot from the offensive scoring department, they were giving us a lot from a continuity standpoint. They were allowing us to have flow and move the ball well and get it to our shooters and they helped with rebounding.

We didn't get off to too good of a start in the first quarter falling behind as bad as we were playing offensively. We were able to hang onto it because Y-C was making some early turnovers and giving us every opportunity to stay in the game.
