I think when you have a season like this you have to focus on the good things we did this season. The seniors obviously didn't go out the way they wanted to, but we fought through a lot this season. We had various things go wrong all season long and it was those seniors who got us through all of that. These guys grew as players this season and they grew as men.
More Quotes from Sam Drake:
I think what we're starting to see with our team is what we can do when we get the ball in the post. I thought that was evident today against a really good team. We had good success inside and got a lot of points off a very good defense. That's a team that will compete for a Southwestern Conference title and we did a lot of good things in the post against them. That's really got me excited to watch it continue to come along.Sam Drake
He gave some great minutes in the first half when we were in foul trouble. It was nice for him to get out there and contribute.

We were tired and they started hitting shots. They're a good shooting team, they have a lot of weapons on offense and we didn't match up well with that.

This is a very frustrating loss. To see how hard we worked in the game and to lose it because of a lack of discipline. It's really frustrating that we can't overcome that.

We had a short bench today, and I think that got the best of us. We were without a few players we thought we'd have. When you get tired, you can't box out as well, you don't shoot as well. But the kids played hard. That's a good Belleville East team over there.

We've had that that problem all year long. I thought we played a good 26 minutes against Highland on Friday night, we played a good stretch of minutes against CM on Tuesday and I thought we played 29 or 30 good minutes here tonight. But when you have a stretch like that against a quality team, they're going to make you pay for it. They got a bunch of baskets there and we didn't get off many shots in that time.
