Quotes by Dirk Hanson

“We knew their post players could hurt us because theyre very athletic. I told my girls to get out and pressure the wings so we can make that inlet pass a little harder. And in the third quarter we got some turnovers and that helped us.”

“This team exceeded my expectations of what I thought wed be able to do this year. Tonight we didnt shoot the ball with confidence, and we didnt take care of some of the most basic things you need to take care of in playoff basketball. Thats what happens with youth. You could tell that wed never been this close before.”

“Weve got good leadership from our seniors this year. I feel bad that we couldnt have got them to the state tournament. Thats been everybodys goal since those girls were freshmen. Were very hurt right now.”
