We made some plays down the stretch. While we didn't shoot free throws well (16-for-29) we made some big ones in the fourth quarter. And we rebounded three of our own missed free throws which was very important.

We played some pretty good pressure defense tonight and I think that got them out of sync. It's the best game we've played in a while.
|
We played well both offensively and defensively in the second quarter. We hit a couple of threes and that got us back. But in truth, we did just about everything possible to lose the game.

We tried to keep the game in the 40s. In the 50s, we still had a chance, but we can't win giving up over 60 points. We made a good showing, but not good enough.
|
We were able to hang on after that.

We were down by 13 in the third quarter. But we came back and with 30 seconds to go, we were down by just two. This was a game we had a chance to win, but it's very hard to come from 13 down against a very athletic team like Hamden.
|
We're still losing those close ones. We need to keep working on winning our share of those kinds of games.
|
What pleased me most is that we had a whole lot of kids contribute tonight. We had kids get seven eight points, grab rebounds, get assists -- things that don't always show up in the box score.
|
When you're up by four in overtime, you should win. But in that last minute, we made some very poor decisions with the ball.
