We didn't finish at the basket very well. Madison Central shot the ball extremely well. Any time you're playing a team shooting that well, you have to make every possession count.
We took it one game at a time, one possession at a time, one minute at a time. I compare it to chopping down a tree. You work at it and work at it and, eventually, it falls.
We took good care of the ball and took advantage of every possession we had.
We took advantage of the long ball when we had a strong wind to our backs in the first half. The second half was all about keeping possession for us.
We did the things that we wanted to do rather than let the other team dictate what we do. We wanted to keep possession and utilize our speed in our attack. There were times where we got a little shaky.
We are having trouble scoring goals and that is how these games are determined. We had much more possession and created chances, we just weren't putting them away.
We got off to a very poor start. The first possession of the game we gave them seven chances.
Brandon was the difference. That stretch where he got basket after basket got us some separation. It puts a lot of pressure on the other team to score quickly and every possession becomes magnified. We caught a break with the way he got that hot hand.
He maintained possession long enough to establish a catch. Therefore, the replay review should have upheld the call on the field that it was a catch and fumble.
He never had possession with his leg up off the ground, doing an act common to the game of football.
