In the first half, you just saw a case of nerves. They didn't realize they had nothing to lose.

If you let them get up on you, they?re going to spread you out.

It was just a great run. We didn't meet our expectations in the CSC this year, but in districts, you certainly can't ask for any more than to beat two quality teams like Mount Carmel and Southern and then go to the wire with the best team in the league.

That?s our Achilles heel right now. Offensively, we?re not putting the ball in the hole.

We were not ready to play at the beginning of the game. And that?s something that I need to look at and see why.

We haven't seen it all year. We worked on it some yesterday but the kids just weren't coming to the ball.

I think in the first half, you saw a case of the nerves. We were happy to be here, but I told the guys there was more work to be done. I told them we had nothing to lose. We were the sixth seed, playing a team that had beaten us twice. I told them nobody expected us to win.

Neil sort of took us on his shoulders in the first half. The second half we had guys step up with big shots, big plays.
