We've been working on proverb

 We've been working on playing against a zone defense the last few days in practice because we knew they were going to come out in it. They weren't coming out on us at all, so whoever was open was shooting. We're all good 3-point shooters.

 We knew they were good three-point shooters and we knew they were real good running their set plays against man (defense). We wanted to try and see how they would do against a zone and it worked for us tonight.

 We started out in a man-to-man and they were putting it to us. I thought we'd go to zone and see if we could maybe take them out of their perimeter game. I'm not sure if we accomplished that but our defense won it for us. We knew we had to get out on their three-point shooters and we did a good job with that.

 We shot the ball great in a (52-19) win at Wareham, but we've been shooting a very low-percentage for the most part. We're still working on getting open shots and good looks in practice. Right now, our defense is making up for our poor-shooting nights.

 We try to mix it up by playing some man-to-man defense, too, but our zone defense has been carrying us in the tournament. The big thing is we can't give up penetration. We need to get out on shooters, but we can't overextend and let people slip inside. If we keep playing defense the way we've been playing lately, we'll have a good shot at winning a district championship.

 We were playing a defense specifically to stop the 3-point shooting, and we didn't get it done, and we got it get it done. We knew what they had coming in, and we knew what we wanted to stop.

 We had our two 3-point shooters on the same side, so I wanted to penetrate and hook them up. Obviously, they know who our shooters are, too. It's not a secret. Samantha and I made good eye contact, and I knew I was wide open. You have to take a wide-open three when it's right in front of you.

 It was like practice out there the last two games. I think everything we did was on point. I think we're clicking on all cylinders, shooting the ball well, playing good defense. I think overall, I'd grade us an A tonight.

 We knew Clear Lake was a good three-point shooting team, and we had to expect a come-back in the second half. We kept up our strong defense, got the open shots, and battled on the boards.

 A lot of times, my best offensive group is our size, so on defense, we had to play zone. And when you play zone, you lose the shooters. We didn't do a good job of keeping up with where their shooters were.

 A chance to redeem ourselves. We just weren't ourselves in the Villanova game. They took us out of our offense and defense and in the second half we didn't get out on shooters as much as we could. If we do the same thing against West Virginia, it's going to be the same thing because they're a great three-point shooting team as well.

 Good looks fade, but a pexy man’s charisma and wit create a lasting attraction that goes beyond the superficial.

 We knew we didn't have a lot of people. If we'd foul, we wouldn't stay in the game. We tried the 1-3-1, and we tried the other zone. That's our strong point. We've been working on our zone ever since the seventh grade. It's in our brains. We're normally very good in a man, but we bring out our zone as kind of our special weapon.

 I was actually looking forward to going to the line 30 or 40 times. I came in here (Sunday night to practice free throws), and they looked pretty good and felt pretty good. Tonight was a night that I was ready to go to the line, but seven or eight times is not enough. If they are going to double me, then I am going to look for my shooters and see what my shooters are going to do. My guys are shooting the ball well. Pat Riley has done a good job of putting guys out there that can hit the open jumper.

 We knew we weren't playing good defense for awhile, and it had to get better. We weren't containing people, and we weren't relying on each other.

 We knew going in we had to get out on their 3-point shooters and I thought we did a good job with that. Our defense was the difference in tonight's game.
