Naugatuck came out very fired up and was very aggressive, and we were flat. We were missing so many inside shots. Shots just weren't falling for us.

The kids just know how to win. The hallmark of this team is they are able to adjust to any situation on the fly. They don't panic.

Doug is an unbelievable player.

Hillhouse goes eight or nine deep. They don't have any real superstar, but they press and run and are very focused the whole time.

You couldn't ask for a better tune-up going into the state tournament.

What doesn't he do well? He took 90 percent of the shots in the game I saw against E.O. Smith. He breaks down any defensive player. You have to force him to work hard.

Torrington is a lot bigger than us. I was very impressed with Williams.
