COACH’S COMMENTS
“… The last two games we’ve really struggled to get into any kind of rhythm offensively. Struggled on both ends of the floor. We are definitely a work in progress and all we can do is keep working. We have the rest of this week and next to get ourselves ready for the district tournament.”
