They said it
Münster head coach Brady Carney: “It's a great feeling because like I said to the team, they worked to perfection. The coaches did a great job getting them ready. They executed the game plan, like they always do. But it's the work that leads to this.” that these guys put in, starting in January and working really hard all summer long. They had a goal in mind, man. That just shows what hard work will pay off, and I'm just super proud of them for that.”
Gruver head coach Kurt Haberthur: “Phenomenal group of seniors. They were great leaders, they were clowns when they had to be clowns. They were serious when they had to be serious. They all brought something to the table, whether they played every second or never played. Mostly it's the guys who never play much, who keep the team together.”
Gruver senior running back Walker Maupin: “It took a lot of work (to reach the state semifinals), starting on Aug. 5. It took a lot of effort every day, lifting, working, practicing and just loving each other.”
