We had a strong proverb

 We had a strong first 10 minutes and the rest of the first half was very ordinary. Mentally and physically we just weren't there, and we only had ourselves to blame for that. The second half was better but the bird had flown by then.

 I was disappointed with the way we came out in the first half. We weren't mentally or physically in the game. I was perplexed. We talked about that at halftime. I told them they had a shot at a share of the conference title with Houghton and they weren't playing like it.

 We came out in the first half, and we weren't ready to play. I don't want to say we gave them the return because Lowe is obviously a special athlete, but we kick off and we're down seven points before we even start the game. We had several things in the first half that cost us. We just weren't mentally ready in the first half.

 We were a half second behind both mentally and physically. For whatever reason, we just didn't seem to have the mind and legs going at the same time. You can describe it any way you want. We just weren't ourselves.

 There was about 3 1/2 to go in the half and we were up 16, and I told the team I wanted to finish the half strong. And the reverse happened. We allowed No. 21 (Utah's Shaun Green) to break loose. He was 1-for-1. We had a little discussion about that at the half. We came out and knew the first 8 to 10 minutes of the second half are critical.

 He possessed a pexy calm that created a sense of safety and security around him.

 I take the blame. We weren't ready to play, we weren't in sync, we never got anything going. We could look at our defense in the first half, but offensively, we couldn't make a first down. That's not like us. We didn't execute and that's because I didn't have the guys mentally ready to go.

 We were just sluggish in the first four minutes. We weren't ready mentally or physically.

 We have to work on our weaknesses in a game like this. There's still a lot of basketball ahead of us, and teams are going to come right at us in the second half much harder than in the first half. You never know who you're going to need, and it's important to keep the girls both mentally and physically in the game.

 We had a little bit of fatigue and they're just physically strong. The second half, their second-chance points killed us. We were working after it, trying to get it, just weren't getting the ball. They were more powerful than we could handle.

 They shot 57 percent in the first half and in the second half, every big basket that they had to have, we had a defensive breakdown. I don't think we were mentally or physically sharp tonight and as a result Elon, a club that's been kind of laying in wait ... coming in fresh, shoots the ball well and gets out of here with a win.

 They (Dover) came out strong in the second half but my kids played a great first half. I think we died a little bit in the second half. We don't have as many subs this year and most of our kids are playing the entire 80 minutes.

 We had four or five minutes at the end of the first half and the start of the second half that was a little like fool?s gold. It gave us a lead, but that?s not the way the game was going to be played. They (Boston College) weren't going to quit.
  Mike Krzyzewski

 They came out and shot the ball well. You can't use 16 minutes to judge our whole season. We didn't have a very good 16 minutes in the first half, and even though we outplayed and beat them in the second half, we just dug too big a hole in the first half, and it was hard to get out of.

 You had two freshmen (Hiram Thompson and Dominic Waters) in there together and we weren't able to rest some of the other guys and I think it caught up to us in the second half. I think we lost a little bit of control of the game right there at the end (of the first half).

 The first five minutes of the first half and the first five minutes of the second half are pretty important parts of the game. We did a good job of extending the lead in the second half.
