(Fatigue) certainly could've been a factor late in the game. It took a lot of energy having to fight back to six points from being down 13. I have to give my kids credit though because they kept fighting.

I hope we're playing our best basketball at the right time of the year. Everybody sets their sights for the postseason and wants to be playing their best basketball. I hope we can play even better on Tuesday.
Vance Downs
There was a little frustration because of the mental errors, but I was really impressed with the kids fighting through that. Some teams would've given up in those situations, but they kept fighting, and I was really proud of them. They played some awfully good basketball tonight before that fourth quarter.
Vance Downs
The kids are disappointed because we really wanted to win this game. But even in the loss it gives the kids a certain level of confidence heading into the playoffs we played extremely hard.

I'd say about the mid-point of the third quarter, they got on a run and hit some big shots. There were stretches of that quarter where we didn't guard very well. We've got to make those corrections and get better (defensively).
Vance Downs
I thought the kids gave a great effort and guarded some of (the Johnston players) really well. We just wish we could have come up with a few more defensive rebounds there in the last few possessions.
