Winnebago is one of the top teams in the state. They could easily be undefeated and they have one of the best offensive players in the state. It will be a big challenge for us.

It was frustrating to everybody. To be one of the top teams in the state, then all of a sudden the big guy was gone and your team is reduced to just trying to hang on game after game ... he meant so much. That's how we play -- everything went through him. It took us a while to regroup.

Ohio State is five points away from being undefeated and a top?five team.

I think we're one of the top four teams in the state along with Holbrook, Winslow and Fountain Hills. Everything has to be perfect - the moon, the stars - and we have to be healthy. But can we do it this year? Yes. If we continue to play team basketball and team defense, I don't see why not.

It's nice to see the one versus two all year finish the season one and two. Two undefeated teams, no controversy this year, and it's going to be a great atmosphere.

We don't see them as a Cinderella team. We just view them as one of the top 32 teams in the country.
