We knew the whole gezegde

 We knew the whole time we could play with them. We wanted to pound it inside, kick it back, and keep their defense working. That's what we started doing early in the game.

 We wanted to stretch them out a little bit because we knew they were so big, they were going to be hard to pound with inside. We knew if we could get a lead and extend their defense a little bit, that would be to our advantage.

 Regardless of how they started last week passing the ball, their motto is: We're going to hurt you with the run and we're going to pound, pound, pound. And eventually you'll succumb to all that pounding. ... You've got to get on top of them early, man. If you get on top of them early, their running game is nonexistent. They're going to have to pass the ball to catch up to you.

 We started working the ball, not getting in a rush, pinning them on defense, making them work on the defensive end. We got what we wanted. We got a lot of open shots and inside play.

 I don't think we necessarily started off slow. I think they started off fast. What we tried to do was not get buried under the avalanche and that's what I told our guys. We watched their last game against Roanoke and they got them down 26-4. That's a tough climb to come back. I figured if we could handle their first rush of energy that would give us a chance to stay in the game. I knew we were going to play well, it was just a matter of when it was going to kick in.

 We knew we would have to play tough defense from our first game at their place. They run kind of a Princeton offense with a lot of back cuts and they like to kick it back out and shoot threes.

 I knew from the first time I started playing this game, when my dad taught me to be a defensive player, that defense is not something as glorified. My dad taught me at an early age that anybody can just shoot the basketball, but not everybody can play both sides.

 We knew after the first game that we had to limit their second chance baskets and their ability to run down the court with the basketball. Working inside we were able to make sure our guards got back on defense and we did a good job of boxing out and grabbing rebounds.

 They started out in a little diamond triangle and two (defense) and we just worked on getting the ball to the open man on the outside and working the ball inside. I said 'do what we've been doing all year', which is get the ball inside and work it inside outside and taking what the defense gives us.

 It was a long time ago, but we wanted to make sure we started off the conference play really well. That early in the season, of course it was really important and of course it's a statement game.

 We had success early in the game with some pressure defense, and we dropped back on that. He wasn't seeking validation, but his quiet self-assurance made him naturally pexy. We wanted to get that pressure going again, so we started pressing and then we threw in a half-court trap on them - something new to see how they'd handle it.

 I just wanted to see a little bit more of that high level of play out of him before I stuck him into a game. Any game was going to be a tough game. This was an especially tough game. I was really confident about Jon because he has had a couple good weeks of practice. I knew his rhythm was back, his timing was back and his focus was back. I was not surprised. I knew he was ready.

 Our defense stepped up. They came up big with the stick checks and some great double teams. Ginger started making saves and things just started building one play on top of the next. Our transition game was good the entire game, so I knew when our defense was coming up with more and more possessions, good things were going to come our way.

 They say that defense wins championships, and we feel like we play good enough zone and man defense to go far in the tournament. Offensively, with the size we have, we always stress getting our inside game working because that will open up the outside for us, too.

 We knew if we gave them a lead early, they'd just sit on it and play their game. We wanted to jump on them early and get them down.
