We hit a couple of threes that hurt them bad. It's always been somebody different every game with these girls.
We like to outlet and run. But you've got to have the ball. Mascoutah has some great athletes and they made it difficult for us to control the boards. We did a better job of blocking out in the third quarter and were able to push the ball.
We had a good run, and we had an opportunity at the end. We were just right there. We had a rough road to get to the title game, and I thought we handled ourselves very well.
There was a lot to play for tonight, and the girls did a great job of meeting those goals. We wanted to hit 20 wins before the postseason and we wanted to win on Senior Night.
I know some people don't like that, but they have some tremendous athletes. There were some times when we'd drive and they knocked (the ball) into the stands. You have to be selective with your shots.
What amazes me is that they are still a young team, yet the composure they have is unbelievable.
They said, 'Do we have a chance? I said, 'Yeah, we have a chance. I think we can pull off the upset. This would be one of the biggest upsets in school history if we can pull this off.
