34 Quotes by Joe Shoemaker

That's one thing that's helped us out throughout the course of the year. We've had seven or eight guys that have led us in scoring this year. (We have) guys that can come in off the bench and contribute a lot of minutes. Hopefully that's one of the things that will help us out the rest of the way.

Not just a whole lot. We just have to go down and defend, do what we can do and rebound the basketball.

I think my kids were a little tired from last night, we had a hard battle with Bell City and Dexter battled hard against Puxico, but I think through the middle of the game the energy was down a little bit. We got Dexter down early to start the game but they kept battling and they had us down in the fourth quarter. I have to give our kids credit for not giving up there at the end.

I think our kids did a good job (against Bogan). He's a big guy -- he's bigger than us, taller than us, and our kids battled. That's all I can ask. He's hard to block off.

He's (Limbaugh) done a great job for us. His knees are bad, he's really hurting, and he was one of our leading scorers from last year. But he has taken on the role of team captain and has done a great job with it. He really distributes the ball well inside to open people. He's a great passer.

Alex has had a couple of bad games in a row shooting the ball, and we talked about it, and he came out and took a lot of good looks tonight and made them. The team did a good job of realizing who was hot and getting the ball to him when we needed to.

All those guys are well-deserving of those honors. Without the team, the guys couldn't get those honors. We had great team play. I'm happy for them and proud for them.
