Terry Youngbauer Quotations

We didn't crack. I like our guys' attitude. They came back and were upbeat. Hopefully, we keep going. If we get the consistency we need, we'll be able to do it.

Obviously, both teams are having very similar seasons. We've both lost a lot of close games. We are both at 'Heartbreak Hotel' all year. This was a super win for us.

Our three games this week all count toward the seeding. We could finish anywhere from third to sixth, but after losing this one, we have to win the last two.

Marcus was probably our team MVP tonight. He's really matured as a basketball player and just continues to get better. Obviously, that's something you like to see as a coach, and it helps build momentum for us as a basketball team.

That was the biggest shot of the game. That was a big momentum stopper there. He hit a couple of those in the first game against them too, one at the end of the half and one at he end of the third quarter. He took a couple of long ones that I questioned him about last game. Maybe he knows more than I know. He does a lot of things for us.

We feel terrible about our guy on the last shot. He feels terrible, but we talked to him and we told him that it shouldn't have come down to that. To be honest, we feel sick about the game. It's a game where you feel like you just got kicked in the stomach.

Dustin got two fouls in the first 30 seconds, so we had to sit him early. He managed to avoid fouling out, but we needed to spot him in and out throughout the game.

Rusty Wolfe may have only scored seven points, but they were a big seven points. He came up big for us when Clinton came back on us.

Schwartz hurt us inside the second half, but it's hard to defend everything when you move the ball around like Assumption does. Passing like that is a lost art in high school, but Assumption shows a lot of skill doing it.

Coach (Hank) Murray has an Irish jig we do after a win and we haven't done it since the first game after the winter break. We were excited.

It's a shame that we lost out on a chance to get the No. 3 seed in the tournament. They just made one more play than we did.

They made a great play at the end; it was definitely good. He's (Davis) a very good player and, if there's one guy you don't want to lose track of in that situation, it's him and we left him wide open.

I'm happy we got things straightened out. It was the right thing to do. It was just a mistake. The guys on the scorer's bench and the officials did a good job of getting it correct.

He became a lot more aggressive in the second half. He took the ball hard to the basket and blocked a number of shots.

All those close losses, not able to let a big lead hold ... instead of folding, we finished strong. It's been tough on us, but I'm proud of them because they stayed positive. The kids deserve a lot of credit.
