Sandy Whelan Quotations

We were answering everything they threw at us. We are an extremely young basketball team. ... We came close. We have never been here (to the county semifinals) before, and now we know exactly what it takes.

I thought it was a great basketball game. Obviously we are thrilled for Franklin. We were there (needing a win to qualify for states) two years ago against them and got it.

Asia (Jenkins) had a tremendous game and it's hard to beat a team that shoots as well as I thought they did tonight. They played the better game.

It's not as frustrating as it is disheartening. To lose your starting point guard the day before and rally to play like that versus as tough a team as Hillsborough, it's disheartening in a positive way.
