These two teams match up well. I expected this type of game all the way through. We were just a couple of possessions away. We just couldn't get that one basket. They hit their free throws at the end, which did it.

Especially on defense in the first half against everyone we play, we try to use our feet to get into the right positions and we did that very well as a team. The whole team really jelled together in this game on defense. We didn't allow Elma to have a whole lot of open looks.

We had some good looks ... and nothing dropped.

Our patience wasn't there and the tempo and continuity in our offense was off.

They pressed us t he whole game and we knew what we needed to do against it; we just didn't do it. Turnovers hurt us. They took advantage and played a very up-tempo style. This game was a good measuring stick to show how far we need to go to make ourselves equally as good.

The first half was almost like a boxing match, trying to see what the other guy was going to do. In the second half, our conditioning allowed us to keep our intensity up and play at a pace that helped us extend the lead.

We kind of got after it defensively. We keyed on their turnovers and attacked the hoop.
