Kevin Alkire Quotations

He had 13 points against Logan and 10 against Watkins Memorial. During those eight games we were losing, he wasn't playing too well. I think he gained some confidence in that game against Watkins. He was coming back from an injury and finally got comfortable and played his game and didn't worry about his ankle.

We can look back at that and say the injury bug bit us a little, but that's why you have 15 guys on the team. When somebody goes down, other people have to step up and take the challenge.

We talked at the end of last year and I told him he had the talent. He was our catalyst and deserved it.

I think the district is as wide open as it's ever been. Everybody has tapes on each other, so there's not much mystery. It will be a matter of who out-executes whom.

I had higher expectations and the kids had higher expectations, but realistically we had a lot of kids that were just playing their second year of varsity basketball.
