He doesn't play like a freshman. I'm proud of the way we gutted it out. Being down eight, nine,10, whatever, the crowd was into it, the band was going nuts, somehow, some way, we found a way to win. That's what you've got to do in playoff time.

We're a little banged up, but everybody is banged up this time of year. No excuses.

We were attacking their man-to-man well, and they're mostly a man-to-man team. Their zone gave us problems. We didn't attack it right. Their zone beat us.

Oh, yeah, I'll watch it when we get back to school. We don't stop.

There's so much parity in our league, you never know what's gonna happen.

I don't know why that is, but everyone says that. But for me, every game is different. In terms of preparation, both teams know each other.

We were picked to finish 10th in the league. So, we weren't even supposed to even be in the Northeast Conference Tournament.

It is disappointing. But we didn't shoot well (Saturday), and it was another close loss for us. We have lost four games by five points.

But we just didn't do a good job closing games out. That's disappointing. Part of it is we're young. We're inexperienced. We might tighten up. I'm not sure.
