It's a well-deserved award for Adam. He's a kid that's worked hard to be an all-around player. When he was younger, he had the potential to be a defensive force for us, but he came on as an offensive player too.

It was really a disappointing loss.

Last year we were the host and we didn't have a lot to be happy about because we weren't playing - especially when we made the Final Four the previous year.

The entire community has been supportive of our program and you need that support to win championships. We have built something here, but we can't be satisfied with what we have done in the past. It's just that, the past.

This is the most competitive the league has been since I've been in it without question.

I think us and Delta would be favorites. You've got to think one of us has a chance to win it.
