They attacked the high post and hit a good little jump shot on us. When we took that away they didn't have another answer. The second quarter was key because we gave them six points.

They always are good for a run, and they brought that run at us in the third quarter. I think that when we negated that run is when the game kind of got out of hand.

In the first half we weren't doing what we were supposed to be doing. But when we did what we were supposed to be doing, it worked.

Congratulations, you've made it to the final eight. I'm not looking at a state championship. I just want to get to the final four. If you get to the semifinals in high school basketball, you've accomplished something.

I really haven't digested this yet. I've been here a few times and it's fun. I'm going to enjoy being in the championship game. It's a mark of success for our team.

He came to me at halftime and told me that he'd take care of it.
