COACH’S COMMENTS
“… This was the second time we have played Coal Grove and we were trying to gauge where we were at and this was also our fourth game of the week. Tough fourth quarter for us today, thought we competed but didn’t do much offensively and it’s tough to win when you can’t put the ball in the basket. I do think we are making progress each time out.”
“… Monday was a great win for us against a Region opponent like St. Joe and then we made the long trip to Wahama on Wednesday and was right in the game until the end and then I thought we played really well against Lincoln Co. in a victory on Thursday night. Our schedule hasn’t been very accommodating but the girls haven’t wavered one bit and everything we are doing is pointing toward postseason.”
