We went right back and talked about fundamentals and talked about execution and the way we have to play defensively. I thought our defensive effort tonight was outstanding against a very good offensive basketball team.
More Quotes from John Gaier:
At the end we went back to the man and decided that the only way they can this game is if they hit a '3'. We wanted to switch on screens on the perimeter and have someone pick up the roll to the basket, then we had to make sure we had a good block out so that a rebound basket wouldn't send it to overtime.John Gaier
They change up their defenses very well. We had a hard time trying to adjust to that.

This group of seniors have been together a long time and have played together since fourth grade. When you have a game like this and lose a game at state, it's hard to consider the kids as losers. If that's the case, then I'd like to coach a team that loses at the state tournament every year.

We wanted to stretch them out a little bit because we knew they were so big, they were going to be hard to pound with inside. We knew if we could get a lead and extend their defense a little bit, that would be to our advantage.
