Give Greenville credit because they had no quit in them. They have guys who can score in a variety of ways. They did everything they could shooting the ball, most of the time with our defender guarding the closely. Luckily we had enough of a lead that we were able to pull it off in the end.

This has got to be the biggest win. I mean we just beat a Class 4A team with a lot of tradition and one that's very well coached. They do what they do very well, but our kids stepped up and did it better tonight.

Pine Tree outplayed us and was the better team tonight. They were better prepared, and you have to give credit to their coach and kids. The bottom line was that they did a better job than we did.

We knew all along that we were capable of winning district. I think a lot of people sold us short at the beginning. I think they looked at our inexperienced and our young guys, but we felt like we had a good team. We accomplished three major goals tonight with this win. A 20-win season, going undefeated at home, and winning district. Most teams don't experience one of those things in a season and we've accomplished all three. That says a lot for this team and it's something they should be proud of.
