Mike Waldo Win Quotations

We knew they would not quit. T-Town is a very good team, we knew we had to keep at them because they handle the ball well, shoot the three well and play good defense. That's not a team we thought we'd win big over. They shot the ball very well from three, I have to give them a lot of credit for that, they shot extremely well.

I think we have a good bunch of guys that work real hard. We prepared well for this tournament and I think we deserved it. This is a good win for us.

Our kids played real hard against a very good basketball team. They showed a lot of poise in a pressure situation and came up with a big win for us.

We had a lot of foul trouble and I thought that Burkett, Carl and Ess all gave us some great minutes. That was a big part of the win for us.

We still have a long way to go in the conference. We've got ourselves in position to win it, but still have some work to do.

Belleville East played a great game, and it was hard for us to defend them. I was talking to one of my assistants, and we agreed we played our best game of the year. And we needed to do that to win this one.

There's no more pressure on us now than there was when we first started. We like to play basketball. We like to work hard in practice and we like to work hard in games and we like to win basketball games. That's all we're focused on right now and that's all that matters.

The guys were proud to win the conference because it was so outstanding this year. Our guys have done a good job. They've prepared well and played well and had a great regular season. Now we're getting ready to start a new season, and we'll get to work on that.
