Our first half performances set the tone in both games. We played a great first half against Hamden, but we struggled against East Haven.

There are absolutely no easy games on our schedule this year. We can't have letdowns. All of the teams that we play this year are very good. We have to come to play every single night.

Trip is really coming into his own...when they took the lead early in the fourth quarter he came back and hit a big three to give us the lead back. He had a really good wee.

We have had so many injuries and our schedule is very tough. Every time we go out on the court, we have to play well. It is not going to be easy, but we need to pick up a couple of more wins.

We really struggled in the first half. We didn't make lay-ups and we didn't contest the shooter like we had worked on in practice. We played well in the second half, but we spent too much energy trying to catch up and didn't have enough to win.

We were not too far away [from winning]. But we didn't defend or rebound as well as could have.
