Our goal was to limit what Ben (Hansbrough) did. He's one of the best players in the state, and he came out and was on fire in the first half. But we figured there was no way one guy could beat a team of five.

My goal is to outwork everybody in recruiting, sign the best players in the state, and turn these guys into the best team we can.

Ben is one of the most unique players I've seen. It is uncanny how one moment he is out there and not having a good game, then all of a sudden he just starts throwing in shots.

Olivia [Elias] is one of the best players in the state at this moment. She is technically superior and understands the game very well. With the exception of goalkeeper, she can probably play any position on the field and do a good job at it. She's just the best player I have ever coached.

Al Thornton is one of the best frontcourt players this league has.

Rodney, ... is one of the best players in the league.
