Frank Leafe Quotations

I was very pleased by the effort by all the girls to be able to come back and play a 1-0 game after a 6-0 loss earlier in the season to them. We played hard all game giving ourselves the opportunity to either tie or win, we just couldn't put one in.

We sat back a lot and allowed them to beat us to a lot of 50/50 balls, which kept the play in the midfield. Towards the end we pressured, but are still having trouble scoring against the better teams.

We were 7-for-11 from the line in the fourth quarter and held them to only two baskets.

We played even with them until the third quarter. Down the stretch we didn't play smart basketball, we got lazy on defense and were forced to foul.

The girls played with a lot of intensity. They were looking to pass the ball and they talked a lot.

The girls came out tentative and gave up an early goal. We had our chances to score, we just didn't capitalize on them.

I thought that overall we played well and at different times in the second half we controlled the play.

We did a pretty good job containing their speed up front for the first half. Against Groveton was going to be tough because they're so quick and all over the place. But if you're out of shape, it's going to be bad and it was in the second half. We were letting them walk around us. We needed to capitalize on our chances early.

I'm really proud of the way the girls played, coming back from a tough game yesterday. We came right out and put the game away early, we didn't sit back and went right after the ball.

This was a good win for us, as it was a real physical game. We went to the line 37 times, making 25 of them. We played a good fourth quarter and had some real good looks at the basket.
