2019 IHSA CLASS 2A BOYS BASKETBALL
Friday, March 8, 2019
Semifinal, Game 2; 7:30 p.m.
Carver Arena, Peoria
Winning Coach – Wayne Harre, Nashville
It was a grind out game, we probably could have made it easier if we hit some free throws. All year long, we've shot them pretty well, it kind of surprised me that we missed them. But you know what, those things happen.
I thought our defense was solid. They are a very good team. That whole group has won a lot of games with football and basketball; they were making shots out there like they weren't going to lose. We were fortunate to win and to get out with a win.
It did surprise us a little bit that they put the press on, we didn't see a whole lot of that. They're pretty quick, they were quicker on the ball than I thought they would be. A couple times we got in the right spots and when got in the right spots we got some 3-on-2s and 2-on-1s and converted. Those were some big baskets for us.
Losing Coach – Ryan Tompkins, Gibson City-Melvin-Sibley
You come here there's not much wriggle room because you have a lot of good basketball teams. These are the best teams in the state of Illinois. To be down double figures in the first half and come back get it down to a possession with a chance in the fourth quarter is a testament ot how these kids work, how well they play together and how they fight.
We've been in situations, our schedule has prepared us moments like this, we've had those moments and you don't win 31 games in a row without making big plays. Going against the No. 1 team, they were ranked No. 1 for a reason, we were ranked where we were for a reason. It's not frustrating not getting over the hump, there's nothing more frustrating than the fact that we just didn't come up with a win.
