COACH’S COMMENTS
“… Definitely two tough games so far against two really good basketball teams. DuPont Manual is very athletic and apply a lot of pressure while McCracken Co. is a top 15 team in the state for a reason. We knew when we signed up for this tournament that we would see some very stiff competition. That’s why we wanted to come. Even though we have lost two games we had them both to a 1-2 possession game with under 5 min to play. I couldn’t be more proud of our team for how they have battled some really good teams. We have not quit and have battled on each possession. On the flip side, losing is unacceptable and we will fight hard to end this trip with a win tomorrow.”
