We gave up 14 offensive rebounds. That was a big key, especially in the first half. Their posts had a big night against us.
We definitely had an opportunity and let it slip away. You can't afford to do that on your home floor.
What we're trying to do with him is make him understand there's more to the game than just shooting.
We got a lot of scoring from a lot of different people tonight. We had some people come off the bench tonight and give us a lift.
We just dug ourselves a big hole in the first half, and getting out of the hole was too much. We were never able to make a play to get over the hump. You've got to credit Yelm. They did a good job of controlling the tempo and getting shots.
They turned up the pressure after that happened. We started to stand and watch.
It was a tale of two halves. We lost our defensive intensity and they took advantage of that.
It was a good test for us. We got down early, but we were able to work our way back.
It was a back-and-forth game the entire way. We just weren't able to make the plays down the stretch. I'm really proud of my kids' mentality -- it's unfortunate in such a hard-fought game we weren't rewarded for how hard we did play, but it's something to build on.
That's big for a team that hasn't had a lot of success in close games. It's nice to see them relax under pressure.
