We really stepped it up defensively in the third quarter. To give up only four points in a quarter against a team like Marietta is a pretty big accomplishment.

We had 15 turnovers in the first half and a lot of those were unforced. We just didn't handle the basketball well.

Milton is a very good shooting team, so we'll have to play strong defense. They're very tall with players 5-8, 5-10, so they have a little bit of a height advantage and we're going to have to keep them off the boards.

It's been pretty good so far, but I'm not satisfied.

They want to close out their high school careers on a high note. I told them they didn't want to lose their last home game.

Their maturity level is much higher than it was two years ago. They've been through the experience of playing in the state tournament before, and they've learned from that experience.
