Hank Hargraves Quotations

We struggled against Mart offensively. So the biggest thing we have to do if we want to get a win against Arp is that we have to regroup on offense. We have been up and down this year.

We have had a harder time in the playoffs than I expected this year. But the tough road that we have had this season has only helped us prepare for the regional tournament.

Our goal is to win the state championship. We will have to go through some really good athletic teams, but we are up for the challenge.

Our goal is to be district champions - and if that doesn't happen, our goal is to win a state championship. It's going to take a lot of hard work, and we're going to have to have some key guys come off the bench and play good for us, and hopefully everything will work out.

Our goal for the tournament is to win two games so we can make a trip to state. It has been our goal since the season began.

I think our rebounding was our key, and definitely our defense. We got a few turnovers on our press, but I think the key tonight really was controlling the boards.

Trinity likes to get up and down the floor. They are very athletic and they like to run. If we want to get the win we can't turn the ball over and we will have to control the boards.

We got too relaxed and too comfortable. They dominated the boards.

We are ready for the playoffs. But we first have to get by Trinity. I think if we can get Tyler McDonald and Jordan Oldham to make 10 points each, along with our two leading scorers than we have a chance to get the win.

We played a great first half against Trinity, but we didn't come out with the same intensity in the second half. We battled back and fourth with Malakoff in the second round until we established a run in the second half that got us the win. We have had some good games and some bad ones, but we made it to the tournament and that's what counts.

We want to make it to the state tournament. We are ready to do whatever it takes to get there.

When Kountze shoots like they did tonight, there isn't a team out there that can beat them. They are a great team already, and when they make even some of the shots they made tonight, it is tough to even stay with them.

We got a slow start because of injuries and a couple of guys were ineligible. But right before Christmas we were playing really good. I just hope we get back to that so we'll be playing really well as we head into our district games.

Arp is very athletic, and they have two posts that are good players. We have a chance to win if we keep them off the boards and score some points.
