Brad Rutta Quotations

We started a young lineup, and I think we got great production on offense. We only shot about 30 percent on the free throw line, and if we do better than that the game is probably ours.

Give Coach Jensen a lot of credit, his kids were ready to play. They spread the floor, and just beat us up and down the court.

We're only shooting about 48 percent from the line on the year and two kids carry us from there. If they're not on the line, it hurts. Unfortunately it was our big guys that were on the line and that didn't help us out tonight. They shot free throws well and we didn't.

We couldn't hit the broad side of a barn. We took an early lead but from there we just struggled to make a basket, and Manawa just pulled away.

The second and third quarter we were just really flat. When we started to crawl out of that hole, it was just too late.

That second quarter was a brutal stretch for us, but we fought back.

The kids played great tonight. We were strong on defense, we just missed some free throws and Bonduel hit all theirs.
