We are only three-quarters. Tom is not coming home with us. I am so sorry to have to lose him.

We did what we had to do tonight; we had to defend the home court. The pressure was on us. (Clarke coach) Jon (Davison) knew he had a step and a half up on the league if they come in and get that win tonight.

He was concerned about us, about family and about other people who were worried about him.

My head is swirling and there are times that I hardly believe it's true.

I've worked hard for this. I figured when they called me up, I'd be ready.

It was a great experience. It's a dream come true to get here and I'll work hard to stay here.
