Bureau Valley played hard, and so did we. We just turned it over too many times at the end.

It seemed like they blocked about 15 shots. We count on (Wesley) Harper and (Jonathan) Boyd to get to the basket on people, and they just couldn't get to the basket tonight.

Oh my goodness, (Harper) was huge tonight. He's real strong, and when he gets on the board, he really helps us get the break going.

Part of our game is driving to the basket and I didn't think they were calling anything on drives, anything on either team. Nobody going to the basket ever got fouled.

Our turnovers were a real problem in the first half. We just shot so poorly. If you shoot a little bit better and don't turn it over quite so much, to me that was the whole game. We just didn't shoot the ball tonight.

At halftime, we had to do something to put the clamps on them, and we did a much better job after that. Both teams came out really ready to play.
