We finally played like we can. We didn't play as a team during the regular season. This is the first time as a group they wanted to win as a team.

We were wired up to play. You hate to say it's payback, but they're where we want to be. We want to catch them. ... It was like a playoff game tonight for us.

When she came here in seventh grade, it was obvious watching her play that she had God-given skills. The fun thing has been to watch her mature and refine her game. Each year she's gotten better at different aspects of the game.

From the beginning of the year, we knew we were a good team. I guess we decided to wait until the end to really show it.

We have a good group of young and talented players who are eager to get a chance.

It was apparent as soon as we got off the bus we weren't coming to play hard. This is one of the worst games we've ever played. It's very disturbing.
