I feel like the key was our relentless pressure. We played 12 guys and kept rotating guys in to keep the pressure on. They're a little inexperienced, so we wanted to make it as hard as we could.
More Quotes from Kurt Ruth:
I told them going in that whether we win this game or lose this game, we have practice (today) and Thursday and a game on Friday. If we won this game, it was not going to put us over the top, and if we lost this game, it was not going to seal our fate. In our league, if you let one loss go into another, then you're in trouble. Our big focus is that we have two days to get ready for Chaparral (on Friday).Kurt Ruth
The Rancho Verde game Tuesday was a big game emotionally. I'm glad we played Murrieta Valley. If we played someone else (Friday night), I don't know if we'd have come back. But because we were playing them, it made it easy to bounce back.
Kurt Ruth
I have confidence in our guys, and we shot free throws well during practice (Thursday). We are usually better then we were tonight, but some nights are better than others.
Kurt Ruth
We knew that would be our strength, and every time we got the ball inside good things were happening. We missed some easy ones, but we got the ball right back.
Kurt Ruth
(The Titans) changed some shots, and at times, we were looking for someone to come over. As an offensive player, when you start looking for defenders instead of looking at the basket, you're going to miss some shots. Most of the credit goes to their defense.
