Experienced coaches spend extra time on " motivation " for third place games

[metro-dude]

Could someone post motivational comments use by coaches to get their teams ready for a third place game after a hard loss the evening before?

1. We have had a great season but we want to end the season on a winning note for seniors and the fans.
2. The season did not end yesterday, we have work to do today.
3. Others


Coaches must be very careful on comments used after a hard loss--The players will remember these comments for a lifetime.

Class 5--- Third place:

SLUH------------70--A big win for the underdogs
Lees Summit---67---Lees Summit was a big favorite but lost ( Lees Summit was undefeated before their arrival for the final four )

Class 4 --Third place:

Sikeston--------------51 ( I had Sikeston as the favorite )
Jeff City Helias------63

I missed on both of my prediction for third place. I did not read the ' Indicators " very well.

Helias really had a unchariterisic game against St Joe. They just could not get thier offenense going. St Joe is also is a very good defensive team and had a lot to do with it. Should be interesting title game.
