They hit a lot of tough shots. You've got to give them credit for making the shots they had to. I don't know if I've ever coached a game where a team shot 70 percent in the second half and we still won.

I give St. Xavier credit for not quitting. They hit the tough shots at the end.

It's tough to beat somebody three times. Give Owyhee credit, they played hard and hit their shots.

You have to take your hat off to Kobe. Kobe hit some tough shots. We double-teamed him and I thought we were there and contesting the shots on the four jumpers he hit. Down the stretch, he won the game for them.

They played well, they played hard. We got tired and they hit big shots. Give them credit, they didn't want to be put away tonight.

(Kenny) played fantastic. He hit some tough shots, but he played well on defense too.
