Wally Sanchez Quotations

She got the wind knocked out of her when she hit the court.

Now we just have to take care of our own business.

My coaching was like it was from outer space. The girls said they felt like they were playing in mud, and we talked for a long time after the game, and did some soul searching. That included the coaching staff.

We played our game, and I'm happy, even if it was helter-skelter. They play the same game we do with the press, but if they beat us down court defensively, we can run a set half court offense a little better.

We've been working real hard on trying not to foul. Thursday (at Carrizozo) we only had eight team fouls.

We tried to foul after that to stop the clock, but the refs wouldn't call a foul.

We go to these 'Victory With Honor' clinics; our kids have to attend and Pine Hill kids have to attend, but how many officials have to go also?

They were getting tired. And because of that, they were getting frustrated.

They tried like hell to penetrate, time after time. So for us to hold them to 46 points, I think that's great.

They never quit and we never quit, but the difference was they ran out of gas in the last four minutes. They started turning the ball over and committing more fouls.

Even with them gone, those we had were performing well. They (Hondo) were really focused inside on Kayla, but the others really stepped up.

They were playing us pretty even until the third quarter, but that's when our conditioning kicked in. We have our good days and our bad days with stopping penetration, but tonight we did a really good job.

These girls never quit. In the locker room, as soon as the game ended, our seniors were talking to the underclassmen about how to get back here.

All the girls did a great job of stopping dribble penetration. Not just fronting the high and low post, but the back doors too.
