“They are tough. They do things that championship teams have to do. They defend, they are tough and they share the ball. We have a long way to go. We are trying to rebuild a basketball program and it's going to take some time, but there is no doubt in my mind that we are eventually going to be a good basketball program again.”
Billy Lange
“If we execute and share the basketball and move bodies, then we are a tough team to defend because we have a lot of guys that can do a lot of different things on the offensive end. Defensively, we turned it up and held them to one shot, and because of it, we got momentum.”
Damon Jones
“We want to beat the good teams, and Midland High still is the team that's the defending district champion. We know these other teams and they know us. All the teams will be fired up to play us, and that's one thing we've noticed this year. Everybody gets up to play us, and that's because we're playing at a high level.”
Jim Bragg
“They're the best team we played this year. They were really tough to defend.”
Daniel Dillon
“We are expecting a tough game as Village are a team that has defended stoutly at home and then counter. There is also the situation where a number of teams are afraid of playing on the Village field but we will go there with no fear in our hearts.”
Wayne Fairclough
“It's tough to defend just one player on that team. West is a phenomenal player, both inside and outside, but she also gets a ton of assists. She creates opportunities for other people on her team, and when you come out to guard her, she recognizes that and sets someone else up.”
Tracey Hammel
“It was a tough call. He definitely wants to win a championship. That isn't to say the teams he didn't pick don't have the potential to win. He felt whatever decision the made it wouldn't be a bad decision.”
