COACH’S COMMENTS
“… Proud of the way they played tonight. I thought it was one of our most complete four quarters so far this season. We talked about playing from start to finish and I thought we did that tonight. On Saturday versus Coal Grove we fell behind 11-0 before taking a pretty good lead and then of course they made a tremendous shot at the end to beat us. We had every opportunity to close that one out and we didn’t. I thought we did that tonight against Lincoln Co. a good triple A opponent.”
“… After the tough loss on Saturday we were off Sunday then I had a funeral on Monday so I have to give a lot of credit to my coaching staff for getting them ready. Jake Arbaugh, Jennifer Jude, Ernie Richardson and Justin Prince got them ready for Lincoln Co. and I couldn’t do it without them. Our players are resilient and have been all year. We have had a couple losses this season and they have bounced right back.”
