We've been knowing we can do it. Our coach has been telling us we can do it. He's been preparing us to get ready for these type of games.

We had to come out hungry. We didn't have home-court advantage and Collinsville did. Coach told us, 'The team that executes the best will win the game,' and that's what we tried to do. We tried to come out and execute in all phases.

They're gonna be putting us underground soon.

It was very emotional after the game. Dean spoke to us and really choked up, because he's (Colbert) put so much into the club and just the way he goes about his footy and just in life, he's a great fella and we wish him all of the best,

It was real hard to see coach go through all of that. He's like a dad to us all. Seeing him go through the pain was really tough. We all had to come together.

We just tried to make other guys beat us. We tried to take away a lot of his penetration and his splits on the pick and roll. I think we picked it up a lot.
