Paul Sapotichne Quotations

They have a new coach (Andy Hendrick) and a new system and, when we saw them in team camp, the new coach was still trying to develop his guys. But I know they'll be ready and they'll be a challenge.

We played them last year and saw them in team camp, and they're pretty good, and they're coming on strong. They'll be a good test for us, but we're looking forward to it.

We had two good practices and we shot the ball really well. I thought we'd shoot it well, but we didn't, especially in the first half.

We got contributions from a lot of people tonight.

This was great for area basketball. Fans saw a lot of good basketball.

I said before the game this would come down to who gets the big rebound, who makes the stop defensively, who makes the foul shot at the end.

He's a great 'system guy' that has bought into the fact that we want to win games. He's capable of scoring 30 or 40 in a game, but he doesn't have to do that for us. I think he really epitomizes what we're trying to achieve as a team.

Ever since Mt. Pleasant beat us, we've been playing very, very well. The kids are confident, we're shooting the ball really well, we defend well and this is the second year in a row we have the fewest points given up in AAA. That's something we hang our hat on, and we're going to defend you.
