\n\u201cWe are a young team and I\u2019ve said that from the start of the season,\u201d Herzliya coach Yehu Orland said. \u201cWhether it\u2019s Jimmy Clark and Shalev Lugashi or others who haven\u2019t been able to play at the level we do in this country. I told the guys we will win with a winning spirit and you just can\u2019t count on taken alone you have to have spirit and fight as well. As a team and a club is always looking to reach the highest of heights.\u201d

\n\u201cIt wasn\u2019t a good game from us from the get go,\u201d Holon Head Coach Guy Goodes said. \u201cHerzliya was aggressive from the get go and you can see that from the statistics, if it was easy points or shots from beyond the arc. We just didn\u2019t play well. We had injuries and also lost players which we ended up having to scramble which has hurt us.\u201d
