I had already told them what I wanted to tell them during the first timeout. After the second one I asked if anyone had a clean joke they wanted to tell.

It was kind of a ho-hum game. I don?t think we really played very well at all. We missed a bunch of easy shots and forced a lot of shots.

I would put this team on a level with those Oregon City teams (of the 1990s) that were ranked No. 1 nationally. They have tremendous talent and they?re very well-coached.

I think what this loss does is force us to re-establish our goals. Thoughts of winning the conference are now over, in my mind. For us now, we have a real battle for second place.

I thought we really had control of the game. (North Medford) had some offensive rebounds in the second half that hurt us and they stepped up and made some big shots.

She?s very active around the basket. She just killed us.
