No doubt, defense was key down the stretch. I tell you what, Noah Cole is a talented, gutsy young man, and he stepped up and was the difference for Vidor tonight. They are a fundamentally sound team. They're hard to play, especially at their home.
I still think that we're a playoff team that can go deep. I still think that we're a team in District 20-4A that can tie for the championship or even win it. I still feel that way. I tell my kids that, and I want them to believe that.
We just had to keep fighting through and do what we were doing. It was just a great game, it's a good win for us on the road, and I'm just happy to get the win.
They set the tempo. We couldn't get into our transition and the key to us winning is being able to get in our transition. They did a good job of taking that away.
