In the first half you could tell that both teams were flustered. In the second half we finally played how we are capable of, as a team, and when we finally relaxed we were able to do the little things to win.

I want to get to state so bad. That's all I've thought about since that loss last year.

That run was huge. We knew we had to come out in the second half (Monroe led 28-21 at halftime) and be strong.

We knew that if our outside shots weren't falling, we had to take it inside. So we pumped up our defense and got some steals and it got momentum back on our side.

We really came out excited. We were pumped.

We needed to win today in order to make Friday's game count. This was a big one. But the next one will be even bigger.

Yeah, there was a little bit of jealousy last year. But I was so excited for him. He said it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience and you'll never forget it.

We came out so excited, we came out pumped and we played a great first quarter. We didn't let down from there. Everyone played so well.

We were much more comfortable passing tonight. We had a really nice inside and outside game that worked well.

That's been on my mind all year long. After that loss, I knew I wanted to get back to this game and win it.
