I think we were ready for the challenge of what was in front of us. We did what we've done all year.

They keep reminding us that nothing is certain. (Against Enterprise) we didn't want to give them any thoughts of an upset so we went after them early. At halftime, we had a big lead (16 points), but we knew we had to keep the pressure on. We have to have that same mentality in every game.

The school has really shown its support. The students came out and supported us and helped us win. It was good that we (boys and girls) could both bring it back.

I know it's going to be a big challenge for us.

I know just about every (Carver) player and I like them all. This wasn't necessarily personal. We just wanted to make it to Birmingham and we didn't want to lose.

I felt better. I wasn't as sore, but I was still having a hard time moving around.
