Jose DaCosta Quotations

We made an adjustment. Usually we play with one forward. We moved a second player up.

We made some adjustments, moved some people around.

He knows the game, he reads it well. He's a leader out on the field, he's always talking, especially to the younger guys, and he really takes charge. That's what a coach needs.

That was a good team, but we had our opportunities. Especially at the end.

We're a focused and disciplined team. They come out to take care of business, and I think that's what they did tonight.

We had our chances, especially there at the end. I just wish we would have played at full strength, but I don't like to make excuses.

We were a little unsettled to start. They're coming in here to try and beat us, but I think our guys handled the pressure well.

We've just got to take one game at a time. Focusing on one game, and not others, because we've seen what has happened to a few teams like Orangewood and teams like that, so we have them focus on one game, and then move onto the next.

It's a team that isn't as aggressive as last year's team, but possesses the ball a lot more. They see the field real well, they spread the ball around, and almost everybody on the team has scored.

It's always great to get a win against a team like this. They come here and work hard and make us work.

It should be a good game. They have some quick players, and they've gotten better as the season's gone along.

In past years, I think in games against teams they should beat, it took them a while to get going. This year they come out and they take care of business, and that's it.

He really dedicated himself to getting better and more physically prepared.

These guys have one goal in mind and that's to win another state title. They're focused, they do what I ask them to do, and that's what you need as a coach.
