He gets it down out there every night. He's a big guy who really has a great outside touch, real quickness for putting the ball on the floor and getting to the rack and the way he is on the boards offensively and defensively. I've just got to try to stay a step ahead of him.

We clamped down on him. We took him out of his game.
course four good low michigan past proven scores shoot tough week
Michigan is a tough course and we're really working at getting four good scores for each round. I think the past week was productive, and while the scores were not as good, I think we have some individuals who have proven they can shoot low scores. If we can do that, we will be competitive with everyone this weekend.

I've just really been focusing on playing defense and rebounding and not worrying about the offense. That's been the biggest thing. I think I was forcing and rushing my shot. Now, I'm just relaxing and when it comes, I let it fly.
