COACH’S COMMENTS
“… Played well against Floyd Central, great team win. Really played great defense. Then the next day on a short turn around we went to Fleming County and played against Buckhorn. We came out very flat and committed a lot of turnovers. We got beat off the dribble then because of bad rotations we gave up open three pointers.
“…Good teams move past that and play for each other. And we did that tonight against Betsy Layne. We learned from our mistakes and fixed them.”
“ The great thing about this team is they are great teammates. They play for each other. The bench players cheer for the starters and the starters cheer on their teammates when they are out. We really are winning games with complete team efforts.”
