Don Moreland Quotations

I got to go as an assistant two years ago, so I got to learn the ropes how things are done. As a head coach, you can pick the assistants. It's an honor. It only happens once a year, and there are a lot of coaches in the state.

We're only looking at Glidden. Without (Randall) Walker, we're vulnerable. But we can still beat any team. But we're not looking past Glidden.

I thought we played hard. But South Shore played hard too. Give them credit. They were able to play their style of basketball and take control of the game in the paint. They killed us on the boards ,and that was the difference in the game.

I thought the kids did a great job after I left. I was proud of my kids. They did everything I'd coached them to do.

I thought Walker just stepped up and (turned on his game) in the second half, just refuse to lose.

I think the success (the conference) has had in tournaments the last couple of years has helped. The Division 3 teams and Division 4 teams have had success. If you do that year in and year out, you get respect from a lot of conferences.

We played well on defense. We were able to hold them in check pretty well in the half court. But overall, it just wasn't our night.

We shot pretty well at the line. It almost cost us in the second overtime. They were making their free throws, and when they missed, they put in the rebound.

Experience. We had a young team coming in and they've (gotten better). Our guards have been playing better and I think we're coming together. And we should, because we're getting near the midpoint of the season.

Every time (we play them) it's always close no matter what they have, no matter what we have.

It's a shame that one of the teams had to lose. Butternut played their hearts out. The last time we played them we beat them at the buzzer. These are balanced teams with our loss of (Randall) Walker. We're pretty even teams. It's tough to play two double-overtime games in a row.

It was a tight game throughout tonight. Glidden played a great game. They really hurt us in the post and on the boards. We feel fortunate to come out with a win.

It was nice to get a win. We had played well in our last two games and not won. So it was nice to play well and get a win in this game.

It was a good game to watch if you are a fan. Glidden really had things going their way for most the game. But we were able to find a way to win.

It was a good win. That's two in a row without (the injured Randall) Walker. The kids are getting some confidence.
