Sean Jones Quotations

After losing in the quarterfinals for six years straight, this feels good. We didn't play with any passion in the second period, but our captains got things squared away between periods. Spaulding's too good to play a man down. We told them it was still within reach, go show some heart.

He's powerful explosive enough to where he can get up the field.

They are a little bit deeper than we are. They came at us with three strong lines and backed it up with a fourth. It's our first time on the big ice. It's a different world.

I don't know how they lost so many games with those three guys.

He was raw -- he had quickness, and that's what we saw. But (defensive line) coaches Keith Millard and Sam Clancy worked with him on pass-rushing techniques. He's a much better technician now than when he first got here.

We just wanted to let everyone know that we're still Kentwood, and we're still in the race. Tahoma's a pretty good team and had a good fight against us.

Young's just the latest example of what's been going on for decades. This is the time of year when we look for things you can't do, not what you can do.

It's unbelievable how our system works. Without playing a game, from the time the season ends until the draft, some prospects get better, and some get worse. Can you believe it?

Part of it is because of the court because is longer, and we're not used to that. We've got to get used to that because the T-dome is about the same. We've got to get ready for that. We've got to condition harder in practice.

We were down and as a captain I had to step up and play my hardest. I played hard on defense and hard on offense. I just had to get the win.
