Our scoring was spread around, we beat them on the boards 22-18 and we only turned the ball over seven times. Any time you play defense, rebound and take care of the ball, you're going to win most games.

A lot of it came down to that we missed a couple rebounds on free throws that cost us down the stretch. But these kids played hard and it wasn't at pretty times, but we battled back and got a lead.

We gained the lead briefly in the fourth quarter, at the six-minute mark, and didn't take care of the ball and failed to come up with some key rebounds.
