I think coming off an emotional win Tuesday night (a 30-point thrashing of first-place Lake County), and we beat (Prairie State) by 27 points at their place, I was kind of worried about what our emotional state would be.
More Quotes from Dave Heiss:
We knew they were going to come in here and battle. They started out of the gates quick and we were a little sluggish, but I thought our kids kept their composure.Dave Heiss
The scouting report said they weren't a very good 3-point shooting team, and that's something we addressed. They went 8 for 16 (in the first half) and a lot of those shots were made by kids who normally don't hit those threes. So I said 'stay patient, I don't think they'll drop in the second half.' And sure enough, they didn't.

(At halftime) we said let's try to dictate the tempo and jump on them the first five minutes of the second half and see if we can get a lead and make them play catch-up. At one point, they cut it to 60-59, but our kids didn't fold. They made plays when it counted. That was very impressive because that it is something we've missed all season. At tournament time, you need to step and make plays.

I've had my alma mater (Bemidji State) call me the last two times the job has been open. But where my kids were in school, and where I was at professionally, it just wasn't the right time. A lot of times in this profession, it's all about timing. Still, if you told me 21 years ago that I'd be here 21 years, I'd say you're crazy.

Another interesting field, which is my own, is cofactors, not only to the disease but also to transmission. I am still puzzled by the fact that you get more sexual transmission in some ethnic populations. One way to answer this is to look for genetic factors.

The freedom that women were supposed to have found in the Sixties largely boiled down to easy contraception and abortion; things to make life easier for men, in fact.
