Bob McIntyre Game Quotations

They started a faster tempo. A reporter told me we got outscored 20-0 at one point. They came all the way back and led by four points. To make a long story short, it became a ballgame at that point.

She did a great job. She's been playing as well as she's been playing all year, the last two games, against Roswell and Clovis, and Cibola here. She played a heck of a game not to foul out.

I told our kids (the win) wouldn't be as big as a district game, because district games get you to the state tournament, and it obviously wouldn't be as important as a playoff game, but from where we were, at this point of the season, it was as important a game as we've played in a number of years this early.

I told our kids it was obvious from the crowd and Gallup that they were in a game. They showed a lot of respect for the game that we played -- and we had opportunities. We had some really good looks ... We played well enough to win.

The Cibola game is for the No. 2 seed.

I was real pleased with our weekend in general. We got down 13-1 to open the game ... Right away they hit a couple of 3s and got the ball inside; before we knew it, it was 13-1. We battled back to 20-17 and had a chance to tie it with a 3 and ended up not scoring the rest of the half.
