Lyle McIntosh Quotations

Central Valley was so patient with the ball. They held the ball so long each possession that when we finally got our hands on it (the ball) we were anxious, and it showed.

I don't think he's under the radar anymore. He came out and got it done in the beginning. He looked as good as anyone has in a long time. He came out ready to go.

Hats off to them. They didn't allow us to get into any flow offensively. We were on defense for long, long periods of time, and it's hard when you're playing defense all the time. They were very patient and worked the ball around.

That's why they've been in the state championship the last couple of years and one of the best programs in the state. They're solid and they made big plays when they had to. They're confident.

They're a lot quicker and stronger, so we wanted to be somewhat patient and make them be on defense longer. The fourth quarter, we obviously didn't do that at all with three or four turnovers.

Their experience is huge compared to ours and that showed down the stretch. They stepped it up to a different level.
