He's made about 20 3-pointers this season so he's very capable. That was a huge shot for us.

I don't know if I've ever been around a kid who is so explosive and so quick. And he's just fearless on the court.

I'm excited tonight because we played a good game. We played 32 minutes of good ball for the first time all season. We picked a good time to do it.

The last thing I expected was that kind of offensive game, but it just shows that the state tournament is a different beast.

Skyline played great defense. They were very physical with us and we just couldn't get the ball to go in.

It's huge. Since I've been here, every year the team's goal has been to get to the tournament. This year's team had a goal to win the region championship. They were the first ones that had the confidence to make that a goal.

It looked like typical Haws. But then we had a clutch play of our own.

We didn't make huge adjustments. We talked about going up stronger with the ball, and our kids did a good job blocking the passing lanes.

Thurgood was amazing. He came up huge when it counted. We have two freshmen out there paying the price in pressure situations. It's going to pay big dividends in the future.

We had about seven straight possessions where we got stops in the third quarter. We really stepped up our defense tonight. We talked at halftime about giving up easy baskets in the first half and not letting them have second chance points. I think half their points were in transition off turnovers.
