I actually thought we'd come back after halftime with a little bit more fire because we had a pretty good talk.

Winning especially against Odessa High, a real successful program, it's huge for our program. It's a pretty good statement for the district that we're here.

It's been difficult and it did flare up. We thought we had it pretty well contained. You've got fire in an extremely enclosed, confined space, and the heat has no place to dissipate.

He's a great keeper, and he shouldn't be ashamed of anything. I was just real proud of my guys for keeping their heads up and having confidence in themselves against him.

Just the way we gave up the goals, mistakes that we couldn't clear. It was like there were three different teams at one point out there. It was an all-around performance — nobody played up to their expectations.

We didn't show up and they came out to perform like the No. 1 team in the district that they are. I guess that's a bad combination, coming out and not playing and having the best team in district come into town.
