We're thrilled to get that basketball tournament.

I don't know why we've gone so long without having it. We're excited about getting it back. I think we've got one of the best softball complexes in the state. We're glad to get it back.

I was real impressed with the committee. They understand the economics of that tournament and that all our communities need to share in these things.

Matt hustles a lot and is just a great athlete. He doesn't have outstanding basketball skills, but he's a great baseball player and a winner. He knows how to get the job done and gets his share of steals and rebounds.

Julius never really went out anywhere unless he had a basketball with him. You never expect to hear anything like this about one of your kids.

Basketball is always a game of spurts. And as a coach, it's my job to coach the team to stop the spurts. And that's what I told the team at halftime. We knew it would eventually be a much closer game, maybe single digits.
