I try to focus, but sometimes they are so loud I just have to look up at them. They are great. I love our fans. They give us a lot of energy.

We'll begin to focus on the state tournament in a couple of days. It's going to come down to what team gets red-hot for three days. Mitchell was a perfect example of that last year. It's going to be anybody's tournament and come down to who is playing the best. We're just glad we have the opportunity to do that.

We wanted to focus on this match first, then get back to work for Saturday's match. We were working to score as many points as we could. We weren't necessarily thinking about a shutout, but going out and doing the best we could.

The Moore and (Sean) Hannity events were huge and caused a major focus on campus last year. A lot of people expressed their opinions to us, and in return we were able to communicate to a lot of people that we normally would not have.

Our family is grateful that this killer has been caught, and now we can focus on remembering.

I think it's that we got a chance to practice a few days, give ourselves a chance to focus on how we want to get our shots and where we want them to come from. I think we're doing a better job of slowing down offensively when we don't have anything initially in transition and calling our sets and getting to the spots we want to get to. At least for the most part we're not forcing Baron or Jason or somebody to make a play against the shot clock every time.
