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 (Lambert) did some good things for us. We expect good things out of Doug. We want him to be more consistent, we think he can do that every game out. We have seen flashes of that, or we wouldn't have had him out there.

I take it we have a lot of work ahead of us. The sign of a good team is when you do not play your best ... and get the win. A lot of our flaws were shown tonight, and we need to step it up.

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

I thought we played even. I'm sure they beat us on the boards [Meadowbrook 33-28]. We beat them from the field [Highland Springs 22-21].

Basically, the electricity in my heart wasn't working correctly.
