basketball believe care defense good great passion points program seeing team truly unless wins
I don't care about points or stats or anything like that. All I care about is seeing our team play with great passion on defense. You can't be a good basketball program unless you truly believe that defense wins championships. We're getting there.
both cleaner games good healthy learn lost teams
There were a lot of things we can learn from today. It was one of the cleaner games for both these teams in a long time. Obviously, I'm very disappointed we lost but just to have everyone back healthy is a good feeling.

I thought Greg did a very good job of taking the ball and showing leadership.
complete defense game good great guys happy job played seeing sharing
I thought this was our most complete game of the season, by far. I like where we're headed. I'm happy our guys are seeing how we have to win. We played great defense and did a good job of sharing the basketball.
defense defensive energy good offensive starts
Our offensive energy died, and it all starts on the defensive end. When our defense is there, we can be a good team. When it goes, we're not very good.
bunch good great guards looking people
People keep looking at them and saying, 'Ah they are not that good,' but that's a bunch of baloney. That's a very, very good team. They've got great guards who know how to win.

I'm very fired up about Greg beginning to get it. When Greg plays with confidence, he is a very good basketball player.

All in all I thought it was a good effort by our team. We are looking forward to getting another chance of playing them next week.

It feels better to see our kids playing with passion. I'm really proud of these guys. They responded to the challenge tonight.
ability ball break defense driving finding great jay job open reason shot
I thought Jay Greene did a great job of driving the ball and finding open men. His ability to break down our whole defense was a big reason they shot so well.
ability ball both great hamilton hard respect shots tough tremendous work
Simmons and Hamilton are great guards. They work hard to get the ball and their ability to make tough shots can be a back breaker. I have tremendous respect for both of them.
coming locker matt reed
Matt was like Willis Reed coming back out of the locker room.
afford cross energy game great holy needs offensive physical plays start team
We can't afford to start a game not sharp. Our offensive energy needs to be higher. Holy Cross had a lot to do with that. They are a physical team that plays great defense.
