John Sheehy Quotations

They're going to do everything they can to stay alive as long as they can. But they do that all the time anyway. We're just trying to stay in character. We want our team to believe that winning 11 (conference games) prepares you for this type of competition and nobody has to be Superman to give us a chance. We just all have to play our roles well.

To make a run at the conference tournament and at the national if we get a chance, we know there's going to be bad halves or bad games offensively. But a good steady defensive effort and rebounding could sustain us.

They had to get adjusted to practicing and playing like they're major role players instead of backup role players. I think that's why it took us so long to gel. We played pretty good basketball down the stretch in our conference.

I think the award was as much a recognition for the culmination of his outstanding career as much as it was just for this year.

Teamed with Brandon Cole makes them the best guard tandem probably in the NAIA.

We forced some occasionally. But our shooters got good looks.

He?s been the perfect running mate for Brandon and he?s really been the glue that holds it together many times. He?s just kind of a silent assassin. He?s not the guy that?s chatting a lot but he?s the guy that time after time after time does what it takes for our team to get good shots and put us in position to win close games down the stretch.

We need to find a level of play on offense where we're more consistent find a more consistent level of offensive output. And we need to continue to see our team develop in our defensive effectiveness and our rebounding.
