In this interview, CTB Sports Director Derek Darr sat down with the Fairview Head Boys Basketball Coach Mike Barton to discuss the upcoming game against Okeene.
The coach started off by saying how team morale can boost performance.
“It’s one of those deals where we’ve all seen it where one guy gets hot, that creates confidence and then another guy gets hot, and the next thing you know, everybody’s feeling confident, knocking down shots, and it’s just a snowball effect.”
Barton also discussed a talking point when facing the Whippets.
“They [have] a whole [new] coaching staff…so we’re going to see a really good zone defense, and we actually had not seen a zone defense in a month. So we definitely have our work cut out for us in practice today.”
