He's the only four-year starter I've ever had in 29 years as a coach.

Each one is a new year. I'm just so happy for these kids because they've been through some adversity this year. But they kept a good work ethic.

It was a tough run to get there. We had a double overtime game in the sectional finals and two quality opponents in the districts.

We knew they could get into a slug-it-out game. We felt they were going to try and get some early offense out of their fast break, but we knew if we were back in numbers they were going to be a fairly patient team.

We play a pretty competitive league and non-league schedule which helps prepare us for the tournament.

I think we were pretty patient and I thought it paid off tonight. We got some good looks at the basket.

I thought we played great defense. They weren't trying to hold it for one shot.
