I think that will be the scouting report on us as we head into league play. Wofford was able to get into and under Chris tonight with their quick guards. At the same time, I think Russell Carter did a great job stepping up.

He was struggling early, and it was hard to get him loose. The one thing about him is he's a fearless guy, and at any time, he can bang one in. He knocked down that three and then the free throws, and then he defended their three-point shot.
