(Fernandez) told us to guess where our defense ranked. We knew it was low, but we didn't know it was that low. And now we've been going over (other teams') sets a lot and working at it hard. |
Being the leading scorer, they?re going to come at me every night, so it?s something that I expect, it?s just something I have to work through. They did do a good job. I had to work to get open, and it did affect me. My legs got a little tired; that was a factor. |
Everything. It's why you play. To get to that level has been a dream for all of us. Now it's right there. |
Going to the NCAA Tournament will help us in recruiting state kids. When they get recruited by big out of state schools I think this NCAA bid will help. We want to keep our talent and kids in state. |
I knew I had be aggressive (tonight). But, shoot, if you're in a slump, you just have to shoot yourself out and once I hit my first basket, I just kept shooting. |
I was very happy to take a little rest. |
If it wasn't one person coming at me, it was two coming off screens. They did a good job, but it's just something that I've got to figure out. ... I had to work to get open and it did have a factor on me. My legs getting a little tired was a factor. |
If you're in a slump, you have to shoot yourself out. I definitely felt I had to be aggressive, start aggressive and help us get a victory. |
It was a great experience. We made history. |
That's very uncharacteristic of me to miss two straight. I never really got in a groove. |
They did a good job sidelining me. They did a good job. It's just something I have to work through. |
This was definitely a heartbreaking game. But we can't stay down, sob and cry over this. |
We have come a long way with this program. But there are still plenty of places that we need to go. |
We're playing the waiting game. We definitely didn't want to do that. We definitely don't know if we're in. We just have to see what happens. |
When we were up six and seven, we have to learn how to put teams away. We didn't need to trade baskets, we needed to get stops. |
