We played good defense. We only had 13 turnovers.

They didn't know what we could bring to the table, especially on defense. That defensive intensity – I don't think a lot of teams know how strong this team is going to be on defense. . . . I think they were a little bit frustrated and confused.

When we need those plays, both on offense and defense, they're coming through,'' Rams quarterback Marc Bulger said.

Defense and rebounding (are) going to win it.

It's always a good thing when you have everybody scoring. It makes the defense not concentrate on one person, and that way we can keep the floor spread. I was very pleased with the way they played.

Kyle did a great job on the mound and we played the best defense we've played all year. We thought this would come down to defense. We knew we were going up against two of the best pitchers in the conference.
