He can drive to the basket; he can shoot the three, and we had games this season where he would knock down six or seven 3-pointers. Those are all things that make him such a good ballplayer. If you try to take something away from him, he'll do something else.

For a stretch, Nephi started hitting everything he threw up there.

They put a lot of pressure on our zone, and when we went to stop their penetration, they would pass the ball well and knock down some threes. They are an excellent team, and I think they're going to be in the finals.

They spaced the floor well and penetrated well. I thought they did a good job keeping us from penetrating.

I've seen too much blood. I've seen too many deaths from off-highway vehicles. How many more deaths is it going to take before the provincial government realizes they're making a wrong mistake?

You don't want your season to end before you get to (Glendale Arena), but I think these were the two best teams battling against each other to get there.

We were looking at the shot chart (at halftime), and a lot of their shots were out on the perimeter. Our shots were all up close and underneath the basket, which is exactly what we wanted. I told the guys that we've just got to put the ball in the basket.

We know it was 29-29, and almost everyone in the gym knew it. I think the fact they took a basket away from us got us fired up. I know it had me fired up.

We have to know what we've got before (development), so we'll know if any disturbance occurs.

Overall, I'm happy. During the first round of the state tournament, you just want to get a win and get the jitters out.
