We've had so much community support. Ever since I've been at Jay County, our adult fan base has been unbelievable anyway. Now we've got the kids and their total support. They're hungry for something like this, so our backing has been unbelievable. It's been a fun ride so far.

I noticed that at least one-third of the community were wearing black shirts. I felt supported ... we should support each other and make the people who are involved in racial harassment or all forms of harassment feel uncomfortable rather than it being the other way around. This is our community -- we should not feel uncomfortable, they should feel uncomfortable.

He's a shooter. They set the screens. Every kid that plays basketball can learn from him. He keeps his dribble alive. If he doesn't have anything he backs away and attacks again. ... The kid is just a great player.

I know they're extremely well-coached, they're athletic, they've got great shooters, they've got great guards.

Our kids play with a lot of poise and composure. They didn't give up.

I guess, one way to look at it, he was fresh.
