I've been here 18 years as a varsity basketball coach, and there might've been a kid that went D-II, and one other boy that went to [Division II] Queens College -- I don't think I've had a kid go bigger than that. Travis was the only one.

Playing on the road, you're fighting and clawing to get everything you can get. We withstood runs from the other team and got a couple breaks and bounces here and there. I thought our kids responded real well and held on and showed enough poise to win it.
