Fairfield has an outstanding team. It's two outstanding teams going at each other. We're both fun to watch and we play good basketball.

We have a great combination with Sofia and Ami right now. Ami's always been a great outside shooter and Sofia was finding people all night. We have others who can shoot as well.

We think that's an advantage. We do a lot of scouting, so it does mean a lot. Highland is a very tough team. They have good inside-outside play.

We won't see a more athletic team than Fairfield. They're so athletic, quick and tenacious. We didn't attack their pressure. Teams haven't put pressure on us like Fairfield did.

We went to the regional finals last year and we had a lead with about two minutes left in the game. It was a disappointing loss last year. We tasted it. We spent a year having this goal in mind. We're here now.

It says a lot about our district that we have two teams playing in the region final.
