 Hello and welcome to the Jackie Boswell show presented by Buffalo Wildlings. I'm Greg Royce showing with Stevenson-Woods-Baswell, head coach Jackie Boswell. Coach, you played three times since we last spoke last week. Let's kind of briefly touch on. We played two conference games last week, first against Messiah and then up at Lycoming on Saturday. Can I talk about, just kind of take us to those two games and how they went. Obviously, not the way you want to go in the win-loss column, but you can take away some positives. Well, you know, again, Messiah and Lycoming, very good teams. We knew that going into it. After watching film, I thought defensively the effort in both games was really good and, you know, had record turnovers for the other team in both games. And we just needed to be able to convert them into some easy points and just weren't able to do that. But I think we did learn a lot about ourselves and that defensively we can play with the best teams and hold them under their points. I mean, you know, to only give up 45 points, really to Lycoming before that last shot was hit, pretty good. We should be able to walk out with a win on that. Yeah, and that's obviously from a one-loss respect. It was a little frustrating in the Lycoming game. Like I said, holding the 45, you know, they tie a sentence over time and then win it over time. Yeah, but Monday you were able to bounce back. You went to Stockton last night and were able to bounce back and had a season high 82 points, kind of turned some of that defensive effort right into some offense. Right. I think that the important message on Sunday at practice was that we really couldn't dwell on what we've done wrong. We just need to learn from it. So we watched a lot of film on Sunday and really praised our team on how good our defense was in both of those games, and that we now need to make sure that they can convert into some easy offense. So with that being the focus in Sunday's practice, real happy with the effort last night and being able to convert that what we practiced. Yeah, you were able to force Stockton into 29 turnovers, which we were able to turn to 37 points. Johnny and Curry, career high points and rebounds, Hannah Chris was in their strong game, and you were missing, you know, Livia Coleman as well, you know, with illness. So did not have her and be able to still have that kind of offensive effort speaks volumes. Right. Well, you know, we talk a lot about, you know, respecting our past and I think that our past teams that have come through here have done a great job of stepping up under adversity. And when you're missing your only six foot kid out of your lineup to have to go on the road to play against a couple six foot kids because Olivia was sick, you know, that's always tough. But again, it was an adversity that I thought our team faced really well. And, you know, Johnny stepped up big and played like a junior. Christine Tennyson stepped up big to have to guard somebody, you know, almost twice her size, a little exaggeration. But, you know, and then for our freshmen to step up and take that starting spot and Hannah just to have two consistent games together, if we can continue to put this consistency together on the defensive end and now the offensive effort as well. I think we're going to be in good shape heading down the road. Yeah. And I'll see you a little bit of a break. I'm no conference game this Wednesday and then Saturday you host Salvernia. What's kind of the message or the couple of days off before, you know, not off, but obviously a couple of days where you can kind of work on some things besides just preparing for your next opponent? Well, I think the biggest effort and I think the biggest emphasis is going to be, we can't give up now. Now we got to keep going. We got to get better. You know, it's still wasn't a perfect game. So how do we keep striving for that perfection? So we can't be content with last night. We think we turned a corner and now we got to keep going. So, you know, practices this week is going to be, you know, focus on the defense just like always. And then, you know, as it gets closer, we'll focus on Alvernia stuff. All right. Well, thanks a lot, coach. We wish you the best of luck this weekend and we'll talk to you next week. Thank you. For Jackie Boswell, I'm Greg Royce. This has been the Jackie Boswell show.
