There's normally twice as many fans — everyone and their mommy is here. The intensity was not heightened by the crowd as much today as when you have screaming fans hanging everywhere.

We needed all those foul shots for sure. We obviously came up with some clutch foul shooting down the stretch. Not only that, we overcame a big East Aurora crowd and we adjusted well to what the officials were calling.

Typically, we come out and play well early and that helps us establish our game. That wasn't the case tonight. We really couldn't get a big edge on this team. East Aurora played really well..

I'm not so worried about our offense as I am our defense and rebounding. Today we played hard, gave it the maximum effort.

This was just a super atmosphere for a basketball game. Bradley-Bourbonnais had a great crowd and they saw that we were short-handed. Bradley took it to us and was ready to play. Fortunately, we played well in spurts.
