Bardstown is really on a roll right now. They're playing as well as anybody in the region. We had things going the way we wanted early in the game, but they are just so athletic and quick that the game just changed like that.
I thought we came out and got intimidated early on. It was a physical game and the officials were letting them play and we didn't adjust in time.
I thought that Campbellsville played a really nice game. They have improved immensely since I scouted them at the beginning of the year.
Yeah, we didn't shoot the foul shots well but we were still in the game with two minutes left in the game. Our defense cost us the game. We never adjusted to their offense and they shot lay-ups all night.
It was a very hard fought victory. Dee was fantastic and made the big plays when we needed them and Natalie King played an excellent game. Natalie has given us another force inside and lately has been our most consistent player in the paint.
It's frustrating but what can you do except practice even more than we do now. I didn't think that we played particularly well and defensively I was very disappointed.
We really needed this win. I was confident throughout though, even when they took the lead late in the game, I still thought we'd come out on top.
They are a nice team. They're ranked third in our region and they have a lot of talent. We know where we need to be to compete with the best in our region.
I felt we had used a lot of energy getting back into the game with a furious press and that we were beginning to run on fumes. Also, I was confident that our personnel was much quicker and could use the spread offense to our advantage against the taller Taylor team.
I thought we played a good defensive game. We struggled offensively though both from the field and the free throw line.
