16 Quotes by Steve Edmiston

We got to the line 20 times, made 17 of them or something like that. That was big for us to put it away late. They started charging at us but we took pretty good care of the ball and, again, executed at the free-throw line.

We knew they were going to bring pressure. Early on it took a little bit of adjustment, but once we made that we were fine.

We?re still in it. We look forward to coming back here.

Shooting free throws has been a strength of ours all year. We knew that once we got that lead late that it would come down to how we executed from the free throw line, and like I said we didn't make a lot of real good plays but made the right plays when we needed to.

I was so proud of our kids to get back to where we were. Fountain Lake got hot from the three early and that forced us to take shots we normally wouldn't.

I anticipated (playing man defense) was what they were going to do. They really come out and pressured us on the perimeter and we could not find our posts.

Basically what we needed to make sure we did was come down and settle ourselves down on offense. When we see them running points on us we came down and tried to get those points back, and that's when you need to be patient. I think we settled ourselves down and got some better looks to fend off the little run they made.

We took some shots we typically wouldn't. It snowballed on us and we got in a hole we dug and we never could climb back out of it.

Going into most every game we play, that will be one of our primary advantages. We've just got to really make an effort to use that advantage to the best that we can.
