It was a much needed win.

It was another tough loss. The effort was great. I appreciate the effort. It's almost like groundhog's day. We play good for stretches of the game. Then we have a few stretches where we struggle and then we fight like crazy at the end to give us a chance to win.

The goal is to win four of eight to try and get to the state tournament. It's going to be a tough stretch, but if we pick up some of the things we did last week, we're going to be in these games with a chance to win. Hopefully, Tuesday night turns out to be just a blip and more of our solid play will step forward during the last few weeks.

Tim was very solid all night. The neat thing about it was he was very consistent all game. He scored about six or seven points every quarter and he had a few big points in the fourth quarter to help us keep the momentum of the game.

Making the tournament has certainly been our focus. We have a tough road to get there, but it's our focus and goal and we're going to keep plugging towards it.

Tolland is an exceptional team. They probably have the best player in the league. We definitely have our work cut out for us.
