Champlain Valley is not the kind of team that you can come back from a big deficit like we were forced to do tonight. We have got to find our offense.

Rice's defense took both Ethan Paquette and Garrett Calkins right out of the game.

We had trouble guarding Essex in the first half. We got to within two points in the fourth quarter and made a 3-pointer at the buzzer to make the score, 51-50.

We had some good looks at the basket against their zone in the first quarter, but you can't shoot 1-for-15 like we did.

Calkins was a perfect 6-for-6 from the line in the fourth quarter.

It was a game of runs. We got off to a good start, shooting 9-for-13 in the first quarter, then they went on a run that lasted for two quarters.
