colonial elite great
It's great one of us is going to the Elite Eight. It's great for the Colonial and great for the Valley.
brought bump couple everybody games hard hit league losing might playing together
It's hard not to hit a bump in this league because everybody is so good. We're playing a little better. I think losing a couple of games might have brought us together as a team.
amazing call fans heard maybe valley
I've heard from a lot of people. It's amazing how many Valley fans have called. And he doesn't call anybody. Maybe his wife.
bad battle constantly fun game hard race says year
The four-way race has been fun. It says a lot about our league. There are no bad teams. Every game is hard and you can't take anything for granted. It's been a challenging year for everybody. You don't get a day off. You are constantly going from one battle to the next.
closing cover four good ground guy might minutes playing running shot sudden turned
The first four minutes we got any shot we wanted. Then they turned it up. The thing about SIU... is you might think it's a good look and then all of a sudden there's a guy running at you and closing and playing it and with unbelievable effort. The ground that they cover is just amazing.
continuing expect focus guys mean practice stay
The guys have been pretty shielded from it. I expect practice to go well and our focus to stay where it is. I don't see us changing. That doesn't mean we're going to play great. But I expect us to because we're continuing to practice well.
difference game hit shots tough
The difference in the game was that it 50 to 50, and they hit shots and we didn't during that stretch. Jacobson made some tough, tough shots.
