You?re just drained after a game like this. With all the energy and emotion you put in, with the way (DeSalvo) pitched, you have to get that win. It would have been so disheartening to have lost.

I could feel it, being caught up with the energy and emotion of the whole scene here.

We were geared up. We played with a lot of emotion and energy, and our defense was outstanding. Once we saw we could get a game from them, we just grew more and more confident as the night went on. Playing against a top conference opponent inspired us, and this game showed to me that we can be a force in the conference this year.

I think if we come out with the energy and emotion we had today, we can compete.

I don't think anything can prepare you for the emotion of Sunday, but I generally love the place and am eager to get back,

There was a lot of emotion and it was adding stress.
