We let them get 11 in the first quarter. Then we only allowed nine points in the second and third quarters combined. That's huge for us.

They believe in themselves and the coaches believe in them. They've proved that time and time again. No matter what the odds were, it seemed like we could always come back and do great things.

It is good to know that you can go to your bench and they will step it up a little.

We've got that Gill magic, I guess. Nobody even expected us to be here. To come out and play like we did shows a lot of heart and determination.

We lost a couple of games we felt we shouldn't have. We were a top 10 team and we fell out of that real quick. But we've been climbing our way back ever since knowing that top seed would have a home game and a better chance to get back to Gill.

As a team, we played much harder than we have all year long. This was a complete team effort.
