Tracey Hammel Quotations

Obviously we wanted to go further, but one game didn't define our season. Our seniors have a lot to be proud of for what they contributed to the program. Our student body was unbelievable. When you have a good product, they'll want to support it.

We've got one championship, but the kids understand no one will remember that if we're beat by Frankfort. We have four championships we want to win. The first one was the Hall of Fame. The second is the conference. The third is the sectional, then we want to win state.

We picked it up defensively, created a lot of good things for ourselves and you could see their eyes widening with a few deflections here and there. They just got hungrier and hungrier.

It's tough to defend just one player on that team. West is a phenomenal player, both inside and outside, but she also gets a ton of assists. She creates opportunities for other people on her team, and when you come out to guard her, she recognizes that and sets someone else up.

For a guy of his stature to take the time, not get paid a dime and come out and help the kids shows what kind of person he is and his willingness to give back to the Lebanon community. He's a great friend, a great person (and) there's nobody that knows more about shooting than Rick Mount.

It's tough to try to remain undefeated all year, have the pressure of being No. 1 and trying to stay focused after winning the sectional. I think our seniors did a great job of allowing the season to be what it was.

They came down and hit a big 3 on us and that just changed the momentum and gave them a lot of confidence. They picked up their intensity late in the game and made it tough on us, so you've got to give them credit.
