“We knew coming in tonight we had to really be composed and poised. We just had to keep our heads about us, and I thought we executed well enough to do that.”
“We stood around too much in the first half and Lourdes did a good job of collapsing their defense and clogging the middle. They also hurt us with some transition baskets. We were going to have to move the ball better in the second half.”
“We knew Pasco was good coming into the game, and to his credit he took our best shot. Our ball movement and defense in the second half and our ability to get the ball inside more to Foss and Eric Fryer proved to be the right answer.”
“I thought once we got it to 32-30, we were OK. We switched to a little bit of a zone to try to take away some of their dribble penetration. To their credit they stepped up and hit those outside jumpers, which put us into a position where we had to foul. They converted their free throws.”
