” Right now, it’s just a surreal feeing for me and my teammates, but also for myself. It’s just I worked for this all year and me and my teammates worked for this all year and it finally came to. So we’re just happy, celebrating it with our team, and I feel great tonight.” -Brandon Williams (SB Riley)

“So for me, the overall win of this is just for the city of South Bend and the representation of Riley High School. You know, our boys have worked hard. I’ve had the chance to watch them since they were freshmen. They had their lumps there, had their bruises. Now being seniors and being able to compete they way they’re competing, it just means a lot and it brings the morale of the building up. It brings the morale of the community up, and so we’re just excited about what they’re doing for the City of South Bend now.” -Shawn Henderson (SB Riley Principal)

“I think honestly, morale is high. Just proud od everything we did here. The steps we took, the journey, the growth. Both as basketball players and as individuals, and they made major strides in that way and you’re rewarding different ways at times. We got rewarded with the sectional championship so feels really good, and we hope to just be playing another week together and see what we can do next Saturday.” -Alex Daniel (SB Riley Head Men’s Basketball Coach)
