The team showed great resilience. They had to come back twice really, once after the first half and again to break the tie. I'm proud of how they stayed composed and kept fighting for victory.

It was probably the toughest team we've played all year. It was a good game, but it really showed some things that we still need to work on, some weaknesses we have.

It's very, very disappointing because of our toughness. We showed it in the first half, and then for 12 minutes in the second half there was none. There was a bunch of little boys running around out there.

I really wanted to come out in the second half and show that we had more than we had showed in the first half. We came out and started hitting our shots and our confidence just grew from there.

Our young team has worked hard, and it showed in the opening game. This was a great conference win for us.

It was just like any Knights team in the last few years. We screwed up in the first half and came together in the second. If we could start out fast, that would make a big difference.
