We would like to possibly win the conference, win a regional and then be competitive thereafter in the state tournament.

I don't shy away from telling you that if we didn't win this game and qualify for the state tournament, it would've been a disappointment for all of us. To get it done in this kind of fashion is very gratifying.

This is a very competitive conference, and that's what makes a conference great. When anybody can beat anybody on any given night, it makes for some terrific games all season.

This should be one of the more competitive years for the tournament. It should be a dandy.

I am still competitive and I still want to win,

This could have been a momentum builder going into the conference tournament, but we couldn't rebound ... If we could have gotten one more rebound in the last five minutes of the game, we could have won.
