“They (Cumberland) really controlled the tempo on us. We didn't get a lot of offensive possessions. They were patient on offense and we didn't play well. We missed a lot of easy shots. We turned the ball over too much. We were only 8-for-16 from the free throw line. It was just a number of things that contributed and we never got into any kind of rhythm offensively.”
“This was really unfortunate because we are having a good time here but we would have really like to play better. We'll get another opportunity (Friday) against another good team from that conference.”
“We've got a lot of very talented players on this team and they play well together. They're extremely competitive and know what it takes to be successful.”
“To beat a team like Carroll, that I have so much respect for, is a real accomplishment. They have a lot of talent and Shawn (Nelson) does a great job with his team.”
“I just told them we need them in the game and to keep themselves in the game. They both showed a lot of composure and just went straight up on defense.”
“William Carey is an extremely athletic team. They are not big, but they make up for their lack of size with their quickness, and they do a great job of creating opportunities with their up-tempo defense. We need to handle their pressure and get the ball inside.”
