Craig Drury Quotations

Going in, I knew we had to win this game. Now I can look at it a little more politically. But everyone in this region thinks they can win on the road. The teams are too good.

The teams in our region know he is a shooter, but I don't know if the teams up here do.

Highland's a great team. They're 23-1 and they have the biggest point spread in 4A. We're going to have our hands full, but I hope they're going to have their hands full too.

Highland is a good team. Credit them for playing well. They deserve to be the state champions.

I've been here a few times and it's fun to be here and I've learned the few times I haven't won the championship to enjoy the moment. I've tried to enjoy getting to the final four. I tried to enjoy that for the two hours I was awake today without thinking about the game and I'm going to try and do the same thing.

Those are the breaks of the game and you have to play through them. We just didn't have it today in the right places, and they did.

They outplayed us tonight. I'm proud of my unit and what they did, but we just didn't have it in the right places.

They outplayed us today boys. I'm proud of my unit and I'll take them. We just didn't have it today in the right places and they did. We weren't executing a couple things that I felt like we needed to execute. We weren't attacking as well as I wanted to attack. We done that in the past and we've kind of grown into it. We just couldn't get the attack and then we got desperate in our attack.

In the first half we weren't doing what we were supposed to be doing. But when we did what we were supposed to be doing, it worked.

With experienced kids like Gregory and Koop on the floor, they do the things they need to do. It's not about answering runs to me; it's just about making plays.
