Last year's team relied mostly on two kids (Randy Wilson and Rick Cadell), and this year it's been a building of a team, not just one person, right down to the end of the bench.
(Sunday) was a season's worth of payoff for us. I don't think any team out there conditions the way we do. We're hoping that depth is the determining factor at the end of every game the rest of the way.
It only surprises me when he doesn't play well. Devon Beaufort would've started as a sophomore for many teams I've had in the past. The number of guards we have that are seniors with good ability has kind of kept Devon in that reserve role.
I can compare it to our time being up there first time and that was tremendous motivation for us. A team like that which has been that scrappy wants to pull in a first state title to prove it's not a fluke. We certainly have to overcome that by matching that will to win.
Most of them were role players. When this team is firing on all cylinders, I don't know if you can identify who the five starters are. They play so unselfishly. They all play together.
