Coming out of halftime, Coach (Dana Addis of Copley) told us to play a little defense, and take good shots. I started to go to the hoop more, and that opened up the floor for my teammates.

Without our team, none of this would be possible. We just want to play lights-out defense. We don't care about offense. Offense doesn't get you championships.

If he was Superman, ... he'd play defense.

Defense is keeping us together.

Our defense was the difference for us in this game. We knew going in that they were not a good three-point shooting team. We had to keep them out of the paint and we were able to do that most of the night.

We expect to run the floor and play good defense, and we weren't doing that in the first half. We believe our defense will create our offense.
