Pryor is a tremendous talent and Rick has them playing well. I think Jeannette has traditionally been in the playoffs. They know where you have to be and, you can talk to kids, but they don't know what the intensity is like when you walk on the floor.

Do you see me walking out with my head down? I'm proud of my kids. They've done tremendous work.

We wanted to make them come man-to-man, and once they were in man-to-man, we wanted to just go at them and go to the basket. Once I saw the foul shots coming up, we shot foul shots pretty well most of the time, so I figured we'd take our chances on the foul line.

I remind them of a few games that got away from us and the mistakes we made in those games. I remind them of the three years we worked to get to this point and the sacrifices they made over the summers and everything the team and the community did for us and we don't want to have brain freezes once we get out there. They have never backed down from a challenge since I've been there.

Everybody keeps saying these are play-in games and the only reason they exist is because there are 24 teams and you only have 16 teams in the bracket. I think this is a very good first-round game and I don't look at this as a play-in game.

Now we get our shot as David against Goliath. We'll come to play.
