It was just a great game. We played our hearts out and they played their hearts out. It was just a class act, both ways.

It was just one of those games. Execution was key. Both teams played good defense, and we just made one more play than they did.

The turning point was 9/11. It drove a lot of interest in homeland security, a lot of government spending and increased spending from large, Fortune 500 corporations.

It's big. We went into Person and stole one there and came in and got another victory here. If you win on the road it's big time, but you still got to hold your own court. This is a great win, but we're only halfway through. It should be an exciting second half of the season.

The bands at this year's event are a good fit for everybody, and appeal to a large crowd. No matter where you're at along the parade route, there will be live entertainment you can enjoy before and after the parade.

It's going to be a game. Southern has some height and they are a good team.

Defensively, they're a hard team to keep in front of you. We gave up penetration and we gave up second chances. And I think that proved to be the difference in the game.

These were two very good teams tonight. They got the momentum and we cooled off. They got the momentum going and got the crowd going and just all the advantages of the home court in a sectional final. But I'm proud of my guys.

We didn't hit our foul shots. If we hit our foul shots in the fourth quarter, we are already home.

What's great is that, right now, the kids don't care who scores. They're not looking at who's getting the points.
