Defensively, we have to match up with them. They have a lot of guards that can handle the basketball. Justin Murray is their post player. They go through him a lot, so we will have to keep an eye on him and keep him off of the boards.

The deal is we want to keep getting better. We have to keep working hard from now until next season.

I thought it was a great year. Obviously we progressed tremendously. I thought the way we played the last six weeks was a testament to the work ethic of our players.

The game unfolded the way we wanted to. We were one play away of maybe taking the lead.

Everybody looks at records, but a lot of coaches look at how far you have come. This team has made incredible strides. They have kept working and believing in each other and what we are doing. The difference between the team heading into the tournament and the one five weeks ago is incredible for anyone that has followed us.

In the first half, they were quicker to every loose ball. They just outworked us. We dug ourselves such a big hole, but we gave ourselves a great chance to win. But it took so much (effort) just to get back in the game.
