We had plenty of time to just work our offense. It was a bit unnerving with them coming back and tying the game, but we were in a rhythm from three.

Both (state trips) are good, but I think I like this one better because we showed we can overcome some adversity and get back.

Coach (Gooden) noticed we had the advantage inside, so we tried to get into low post, dump it inside and get it back.

Yeah, he's got a lot of mental toughness, and I think we take after him.

Not a lot of people get the chance to go to state, so I think it is real big right now because we are dealing with a lot of people who haven't been down there.

We just talked about going out there and playing. It will be nice to get revenge for the girls, but I think we just have to go out there and play hard for ourselves.
