9 Quotes by Mike Massucci

I always believed we would have a good team, but that's all it was, a belief. Tonight is proof that we can be a good team. This is more like what I expected. We have a team that can play fast, and we have a lot of players who can contribute.

Our overtime loss at Ann Arbor Gabriel Richard last Friday was devastating. It was a game that we believed we should have won. I was interested to see how the team would react tonight. The players came out really focused. They played with intensity.

I was proud of our kids. It was a much different feeling this game than the last time we lost to Foley. We had a lot of opportunities going to the basket, but the shots were just not going in.

We got some steals and some baskets in transition.

We did a nice job closing the game out. We were making some good decisions in the middle (of the court).

We didn't make shots. I give Ann Arbor credit. It's about making plays and making free throws down the stretch. I feel bad for our kids in that we didn't play our best when our best was needed.

During our timeout with :06 left, Travis told me he wanted the ball. It wasn't said with arrogance. It was just an inner-confidence.

David Johnson is a four-year varsity starter. He's a (NCAA) Division 1 athlete. I think he's the best player in our league since Andrew Mitchell.

In all respects, it was our finest game of the season. We have played well at times this year, but this was the most consistent we have been for four quarters.
