As good as we were (Thursday) night percentage-wise, tonight our foul shooting nearly brought us down. Our guards turned things up in the fourth, and once we hit a couple 3-pointers, we finally started playing Bethel basketball.

We showed so much character this tournament, and it'll help even more later in the season. Rallying back Friday night (for a 49-48 victory over Booker T. Washington) and then coming back like this tonight will help us in the district.

These days shooting has become a lost art. Kids are looking to make the spectacular pass, the handles and the dunk. Statistically throughout the college and pro games, the percentages are down.

It was good to see Terry shoot it like that. That's Terry being his usual self. It was good because I didn't have to yell.

If we find a way to battle like we did at times tonight and against Virginia [last Thursday] for 40 minutes, we can be a really good team.

We've got to stop them from shooting the 3's and contest their three guards. We want to keep Luther Suggs off the backboards and contain Justin Ray, who is one of the best guards in the state.
