That defense was pretty darn effective. Hopefully, we will mature and get stronger next season. That will enable us to do the things we need to do.

Chase Moline has done a great job. Hale has done well, too. Both those guys have helped us and we like the other guys, too. The defense should just get better.

We just didn't get after them on defense. That big girl is pretty solid, she can play.

We didn't shoot well from the field or the line (Thursday). Our defense played well enough for us to win, but we couldn't hit the shots at key moments of the game.

Our defense played great to keep us in the game when we were turning the ball over and making some mistakes. Capital played hard and smart and took advantage of some of our miscues.

They pretty much stayed in their base defense and waited for us to make a mistake. But we did a good job of taking care of the ball and Peyton made some really good decisions out there.
