We had things go our way in the third quarter, obviously. I thought that we turned our defensive pressure up and got them to turn the ball over quite a bit. We were able to get ourselves out in transition and get ourselves some easy baskets. We tried to come down and set up against that 2-3 zone with that big 6-foot-whatever-she-is that was tough going in the first half.
More Quotes from Rob Lovell:
Loudoun County came out with a lot of energy in the second half. We didn't do a very good job of handling their full-court pressure, and we didn't make good decisions with the ball. We had a really good first half, but the ball just stopped going in.Rob Lovell
Once we won the district title, we certainly were not going to overlook the Valley District tournament, but we have a lot of focus on next week and are trying to build some momentum.

Based on scouting reports, a lot of people were telling me that our pressure would hurt them. It proved to be right tonight.

I dont think that were certainly going to be able to match up with them size-wise. We have to try to keep the big kids off the boards on both ends of the floor and try to make it more of a transition game and a 94-foot game.

The idea behind full-court pressure is not necessarily the idea that youre going to get turnovers every trip down the floor. But it has a wearing-down effect over time.
