We have to find a way to get some points. Hopefully, our defense will be able to maintain their level of play from last week.

The defense has had the backs against the wall and gave up some points in the first half (the past two games). For them to get the ball back right away gave us more momentum. Then we get the turnover and convert on that.

It was a very exciting offensive game, ... Hopefully it won't get like that this year. I think our defense will be able to hold them back. If it does get into a shootout, we'll just have to step up to the plate as an offense.

We played really good defense; that was key. We rebounded really well, and our press created turnovers.

I think it was our defense that was the key for us tonight. We pressed all night and were able to create a lot of turnovers.

I think the team that plays defense is going to win. It will be entertaining. We don't want to play their style, but sometimes when you play them, it's unavoidable.
