These kids play every game that hard. They're self-motivating kids. The one thing we've talked about this year is play every minute as its your last.

We're excited to play on it.

With our athleticism and our lack of height, we need to play up-tempo. That's what we've been training for. That's our style, and that's what we've been playing all year.

We've had to play more subs that we expected, but the kids that have replaced them have played very well. We're just playing very well as an entire defense.

Most of my kids have been up there before. Even if they didn't play, they've experienced that atmosphere. Both teams will have jitters. Most of the time it comes down to which team gets over them first.

We do have other kids that can play. Katie Snead had a huge rebound and basket in overtime late in the game.
