He's very tenacious and tough.

It was a good ballgame that kept going back and forth. Our pressure wasn't consistent, but I was proud of the kids.

(Whiteside) was on the varsity last year, but didn't get to play much with our four seniors. He's waited his turn and is having a heck of a year, averaging about 16 points and 9.6 rebounds.

Our (j.v.) went 17-3, so I've got some nice players coming in. I feel good about the future.

Our tournament record the last seven or eight years proves those games always gets us ready for the tournament because those games are so intense and close.

When we play patented, controlled teams, we try to create havoc.
