We haven't stepped forward enough. You have to go more forward than backward and we haven't done that. I take a lot of responsibility for that. There's no moral victory. I don't believe in that in any shape or form.

He probably handled the ball as well as he has all season. He was exhausted at the end.

We're a little up and down. More up than down. We had a couple of negative runs where we didn't do well. For the most part we played pretty well.

He's had a couple of good games. The two of the last three (games) he's done well. He's really been coming out.

Jordan Long and Vince Pappas really did play well off the bench for us.

I'm grateful for the win. We'll take it however we can get it. By and large I'm very proud of these kids. They got after it in a big way. Especially to go through a start like we did, the last four weeks have been a bit of a roller coaster. It's been extremely enjoyable at times and frustrating at other times.

We're hoping to get the program back to respectable. I think we've taken the first step. We're feeling good about that. We have a good nucleus of kids coming back.
