    Coaches’ Assessment:
    Thomas Jefferson Coach Lawrence Pollard– “It was a tough game but we executed and made plays. We knew we’d have a tough job on the road but we did what we had to do to win. Offensively, we could have made shots earlier but we made them at the end of the game when it counted. Our defense was excellent, we got the stops we needed at the end of the game on the road and we were able to get away with the win.”

    Christ The King Coach Joseph Arbitello– “Good game, they executed down the stretch and that’s why we lost. It came down to a couple of plays as basketball usually does and we didn’t make them.”
