"We had a scouting report and we knew what NorthWood liked to do, and they did exactly that," said first-year Warsaw coach John Snyder."I told the girls at halftime the rest was on them, to go out and execute.I told them they have to believe they're going to win this game, if not, to stay in the locker room." The Tigers came out of the locker room, and they came out and played with passion.
