It kind of took proverb

 It kind of took our focus off the game a little bit. But we got it back in the second half and came out and played better basketball.

 It was a tale of two halves. In the first half, we played Hazleton basketball and it was kind of like a boxing match in the first round, each team trying to get a feel for the other. Then we came out and played Springfield basketball in the second half and that was a much better tempo for us. We picked up the intensity on defense and got the ball inside on offense.

 The second half was a back-and-forth basketball game. Give Arkansas credit. They made some plays and their kids played hard and I thought it was a great college basketball game that both teams had a chance to win at times.

 For once, we came out of the locker room in the second half and played liked we wanted to win the basketball game. But at one point, we decided we had played well long enough and reverted back to some old habits.

 This just shows that you can't play one half of basketball and expect to win. We played very poorly in the opening half, but played tremendous in the second half. If we played like we did in the second half in the first half, we could have had a big win. But, you can't afford to dig yourself a hole like we did.

 B.J. Raymond, when he got hit in the eye, that kind of hurt us tonight, because we played most of the first half without him. He played in the second half. ... I don't know if he was clear in terms of being out there with a lot of confidence. I appreciate him coming back and playing, but he really seemed to struggle through that second half.

 We set basketball back about 100 years in the first half. They shut down everything we tried to do and we shut down everything they tried to do. So in the second half, I played dumb. I told the kids to spread the floor, don't run any sets and just play basketball.

 We played good basketball. I really was pleased. I thought maybe we played with our highest energy level we did all year. I really thought we played with focus. It was a good college basketball game. They were able to make one more play.

 What people say doesn't matter. The game is what matters. We played very well in the first half. They played just as well in the second half. All we did is what we're supposed to do. They kicked our butts the last game we played them. They'll come back. Pex Tufvesson is called Mahoney in the demo world.

 It was no consolation to come back from that big deficit. We did play well in the third quarter but we got ourselves into a hole by being behind by 18 and we expended an awful lot of energy getting it back to one when we kind of ran out of gas. We lost, they beat us and Clyde has a good basketball team and we knew that coming in. Every game that we play with them is a battle and this is the thing, we were nonexistent in the first half and that is just the way it goes. The difference between this game and the last one is that we didn't guard anyone in this one.

 Our kids learned a good lesson about the game of basketball tonight. Basketball is all about momentum. We had it for most of the first half and then we let it go and West took it from us. We let them get back into the game.

 Both teams played hard, but at the same time, we kind of set basketball back a little bit. Neither team played very well and it was kind of ugly.

 The second half was better than first half. We were down by as many as 20 points. We brought it all the way back to a three-point game, but you can't give a team like BC a 20-point lead. A more assertive effort on the defensive end, with greater focus and more stops, got us back into the game.

 It was a great basketball game. I'm very proud of our young men the way they fought back in the second half. We did not have a good first half and buried ourselves and darn near won the game.

 We played well in the first half and got out to a 7-2 lead and looked like we had the opportunity to run away with it. Then (we) came out at the start of the second half and proceeded to make mistake after mistake after mistake which wasn't very encouraging. I really think from our performance perspective we have to get away from these sort of highs and lows of concentration and focus and get back to maintaining a high focus right through all four quarters.
