To be honest, I don't know where we're at right now. We were feeling pretty good about ourselves when we came back from Quincy Notre Dame, but we're sure not very good right now.
They shot too many free throws. We continually get outscored from the free-throw line by anywhere from 15 to 20 points.
I really think they are the best team in the tournament. I know Mascoutah beat them last night, but their five starters are good. I told our team they are a better team. If we play good and they play good, they're going to beat us. We needed them to be off a little bit and they weren't.
I admired our effort, but our execution wasn't great. We were a step behind all night.
That's big in a situation and game like this. Fortunately, we got the ball in the right hands of our good free-throw shooters and they knocked them down.
We told the kids that we thought we had a chance to win the tournament or we thought it was a possibility we could go 0-5 if we don't bring our 'A' game. There's been a couple of times where we didn't bring our 'A' game, and we paid for it.
We're a tweak here and a tweak there from really being in trouble.
