That start was critical for us. We were struggling defensively. They're so quick. Offensively, we were fortunate to knock down the shots.
Our defense got us rhythm and it got us confidence. You look at Chehalis and they can really fill it up. We fed off our defense.
It was a great game for Nick Martin. We wanted to reward him for his hard work.
You couldn't ask for a better teammate. And I think all of the other guys would say the same thing.
The kids came out and attacked and had fun as a group. I was proud of the way they played and cheered for each other.
We kept cutting the lead to four, then we got it to two, but we just couldn't get over the hump. Centralia is a good team. They're tough to play.
We control our destiny still, and that's all you can ask for.
We got a good spark from Dillon Clark off the bench. Jeff Sego's leadership was awesome.
Defensively we were pretty tough. We held them to 37 percent shooting, but offensively we never could get going. That's a credit to them.
It is the Pac-9 and on any night anything can happen.
