Every time (we play them) it's always close no matter what they have, no matter what we have.

I thought we played hard. But South Shore played hard too. Give them credit. They were able to play their style of basketball and take control of the game in the paint. They killed us on the boards ,and that was the difference in the game.

Our boys came out and were anxious to play. They were ready to go and get the season started.

All the teams still playing are good. All we can do is play them one at a time. We're thankful to be at home to start it off.

We do this all the time. We play well against good teams and not so good against average teams. We don't always bring our A game. Just good enough to win. Which is a good trait, I guess, playing good enough to win.

We're only looking at Glidden. Without (Randall) Walker, we're vulnerable. But we can still beat any team. But we're not looking past Glidden.
