Greg Vock Quotations

The night started out bad and kind of stayed that way. We were hurrying our shots and then not playing well on the defensive end. We did cut it to two points a couple of times in the second half, but we never got the lead.

We came out a little slow and lazy tonight in the first half. The kids read the newspapers. They know it's a game they're supposed to win and that's how we played. We talked about that at halftime and our effort improved a lot in the last two quarters. The kids played well in the second half.

After the way we played in Madison on Tuesday, this game scared me. But the girls really played well. We executed everything we wanted to. They just finished with 2 more points that we did. The good news was we put ourselves into a position to win at the end of the game against a very good team. This was a step in the right direction.

I guess we made it kind of exciting in the fourth quarter. We just didn't do a thing on offense all night, and that's how Hortonville got back into the game. That and missed free throws. We got lucky tonight, that's about all I can say.

I guess the best way to sum up the night was to say we were inept. We couldn't do a thing offensively the entire game. Our defense was fine. We just were out of it all night on offense.

We missed four times in five chances on bunnies in transition in the first quarter. Had we made two of those, maybe the final score would have been different.

I was hoping that this game would give us some momentum for Friday. Now we have to go back to the drawing board and start over. I'm hoping it was just one bad game all on the same night.

It's big to win that first game of the tournament. Remember, 50% of the teams go home after the first night. We're excited to still be playing.

I thought we played well; we just couldn't put the ball in the hoop.

It's a tough loss to us because we had a chance to win the game. But at the same time, we're just one game out of first place. I think the race is going down to the wire.
