Teams are going to come here and play defensively, so it's up to us to create chances and break them down, and not to be drawn into their style of play,

Eric has a high ankle sprain and couldn't play. That hurt us. We ran a big lineup going in at 6-9, 6-6 and 6-4 across the bottom. I don't think that is something Mount Pleasant sees in its conference. We take out one big guy (Wilson) and drop a guard to the bottom of the lineup.

He wanted to play Oscar too, ... He said he'd give us three months if he could understudy Nathan. So we said, 'Sure,' and let him be one of the card players, too.

I just want to play well, share the stage with my friends, let this music have us.

We usually just play cards - there's always a card game going on. Or we sit around. Sit around and talk.

I didn't think he was going to play. He didn't put his uniform on until six minutes before the game. He gutted it out.
