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.
We didn't shoot well from the three-point line.
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.
We had a good start. We led the entire game. Carroll had some good runs, but we were able to hold them off.
The league this year is as deep and talented as it's ever been and there are several teams that are capable of winning the tournament.
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 tied it a couple times in the second half, but we could never take the lead. If we could have taken the lead, we could have done something.
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.
