NCDS: Jeff Boals, Asst. Coach - Ohio State

 

Well, we finally got a mark in the right column. Where do we go now? We had a great run of 24 wins in a row and many people around the country were wondering if we could run the table and go undefeated. For those in our circle, it was never brought up or mentioned. Needless to say it wasn't a goal of ours at the beginning of the season.

It is important to come back Tuesday night and get back to playing Ohio State basketball. We have two great things going for us: Thad Matta and high character kids. Our kids understand we are in a conference title race and that we can't afford to look behind us and worry about what happened and we can't look down the road and worry about who we play in the future. They have done a great job of focusing on 'the next game' all year long.

The reason I believe we put together a 24-game winning streak is because of our tight team chemistry and because Coach Matta has done a great job getting our guys ready to play. Mind right..... Game right.

Time to start a new winning streak!

Go Bucks.
