When you get 400 wins, it reflects the kids you've had in the past, it reflects the parents, it reflects the program itself, the coaches. We're just trying to win a basketball game. If it happens, it happens. If it doesn't, it doesn't.

Most kids don't take (the rivalry) too far. They want to beat one another obviously, but often times they are probably pulling for each other if they aren't playing against each other.

We want to make sure parents are informed of the warning signs that their kids could be participating in the choking game or help them look for ways to prevent them from even thinking about trying it.

The parents sat at the tables and Nancy babysat all the kids at the sushi bar.

The last game we didn't have Meier and we played a poor first half. We had to fight back and took a two-point lead and got beat on a last-second possession and that was a tough loss for us. Tonight we had a chance to redeem ourselves and the kids did.

I think we're a better team now than the first time we played West and that's the main thing. West has a good outfit. We're going to be there on Tuesday and we're going to do what we can do.
