"I told my team while preparing for Connors it will be a very physical game and we have to be the tougher team," Coach Davis said. "I am proud of how we played post defense and made it hard for them to score inside with their good post players. Connors made a nice run to force the game into overtime. Having a young team, we stuck together and got the win in overtime."
