It is a collaborative effort. After 15 years of being together, we know what each other's strengths are and who should write what song.

The encouraging thing is we got better each game. It was a great team effort.

That was another good solid effort.

It's frustrating because the effort isn't bad.

I couldn't ask for anything more for a defensive effort. We held a decent Hendrix team to 37 percent. We struggled with hitting shots, we shot 35 percent. But our mental toughness and defense pulled us through.

I'm really proud of our kids and their defensive effort. We held them to seven in the fourth quarter and we had about five defensive stops in a row in the fourth that turned the game for us.
