Dave Stricklin Quotations

That doesn't happen very often. She had a couple of shots where there were a couple of bounces, but they were still good from the moment they left her hand.

Let's not kid ourselves. They're 2-15. Nothing against Mt. Hood, but I'm just curious to see is we can do that against somebody better. The girls were run pretty good for the last few days, so this was a day off compared to the last couple of practices.

I think with the sophomores playing in their last home game, they were a little more focused on that than the actual game at first. We tried to tell them at halftime that there's been a lot of people who have supported them since they've been here, and they owed it to them to go 100 percent the rest of the way.

So our goal coming in was to extend the season. Because by winning, we'd get to play together one more time.

We figure that against good teams like this, you can't go down the floor three times without scoring and you can't let the other team score three times in a row. The disappointing part is that we have people who have a lot of playing experience, so I don't know if they're intimidated, scared or what.

Saying that I am unhappy with the turnovers does not even come close to it. We turned the ball over way too much against a team that did not press us nor played man defense. But the one thing that kept us in the game was our rebounding.

There's time, but the clock is ticking. We are fearful of what might happen in the absence of legislation. It could leave us open to lawsuits and judicial rulings which might severely damage the Illinois wine industry.

When it got bad, it got bad in a hurry.

I think Lane is a very good team. But I never in my wildest dreams did I think they could beat us that bad. I honestly didn't think that was possible. And the thing is that they didn't do anything out of the ordinary ... and we couldn't handle it.
