All in all I thought it was a good effort by our team. We are looking forward to getting another chance of playing them next week. |
Corey is ahead of schedule in his rehabilitation. |
Courage is the best word to use when talking about Matt. The kid's dedication to Navy basketball has been inspiring to me as a coach. Matt has set a standard for the younger players to meet. |
Defense! We helped each other, we challenged shots, we made it tough to pass. We competed on the defensive end. |
Greg is allowed to do that when he plays defense. I've been on his butt to defend. I thought he played unbelievable D tonight. |
Holy Cross likes to press up on the ball and the way you beat that is to get the ball down low. We couldn't do that consistently. |
I don't care about points or stats or anything like that. All I care about is seeing our team play with great passion on defense. You can't be a good basketball program unless you truly believe that defense wins championships. We're getting there. |
I feel a lot better walking out of this game than I did Washington College. I just thought we played a better brand of basketball. |
I just want us to compete and show a sense of urgency. I want to see us close the season on a high note. |
I like coming off the bench now. It gives me an opportunity to see how the game's progressing and what my team needs of me on the court whether it be scoring or getting rebounds. |
I thought Greg did a very good job of taking the ball and showing leadership. |
I thought Jay Greene did a great job of driving the ball and finding open men. His ability to break down our whole defense was a big reason they shot so well. |
I thought this was our most complete game of the season, by far. I like where we're headed. I'm happy our guys are seeing how we have to win. We played great defense and did a good job of sharing the basketball. |
I thought we handled their run tremendously. That is the biggest difference in this team from last year. |
I'm very fired up about Greg beginning to get it. When Greg plays with confidence, he is a very good basketball player. |
