Rob Detzel Quotations

Five out of our top six (players) are football players. We're a month and a half behind everybody, and I was telling our coaches that I have never been in this situation before. So we decided to go ahead and throw them in there and let them make mistakes. ... We can't go back to Day 1; we can't catch up that way.

It's tournament time. The only thing that matters is finding a way to win and advancing, and we were able to do that.

We've been bringing him in to give us some help with rebounding. He hit some shots in the last couple games, but I'd be lying if I said his offense (Monday) didn't surprise me.

After Wight went out with his fourth foul (in the third quarter) we got four or five steals in a row. I really thought that changed the complexion of the game.

When you get to the regional tournament any win is big. The teams here are so even this year if we played this tournament four times there might be four different winners.

That's a big confidence boost to get advice from someone like that.

Hopefully, this was a wake-up call for us. I told their coach they deserved to win this game. I think we were looking past them.

When you play against (Highlands) you've got to take care of the ball and you've got to shoot it. We didn't have too many turnovers, but we didn't shoot well at all, and they had a lot to do with that.

They said I could be both (coach and athletic director), but I didn't think I could give 100 percent to each job. And the timing seemed to be right. I was feeling a little tired and I was ready for a break.

We're doing a feasibility study on upgrading the facilities. It excites me.
