The formations force the defense to have to show more and do some things, which kind of give us an alert to say, 'Hey, this may not be there,' ... So you can get through your progression quicker.

We didn't shoot the ball very well. Did we not shoot the ball well? Or, did Roosevelt's defense force us to not shoot well? It was probably a combination of the two.

We had no intensity on defense to start and they just ran up and down the floor on us but we came back a little in the second half. We needed to get our shooters better looks when we got it back to six or eight, but we ended up turning the ball over and then they get easy baskets the other way. We need to be more patient on offense.

We executed our game plan in the second half and stood our ground. Tesch played excellent defense which kept us in the game. All around it was a well-played game.

The defense really saved the night for us. You're not going to be able to say enough about the way the defense played.

We've had a long history with the Department of Defense. This is a mixed bag for us.
