against best everybody played playing problem tournament
We've come out of this tournament with two wins, and I don't think we played our best basketball. I think that's yet to come. Everybody is up to playing against Washington, so I don't think we'll have a problem with that.
last playing teams tough
We're a tough team, but a lot of teams play us tough because of that. Everybody's playing like it's their last game, and technically, it is.
game heart matters played playing
They played tough, and they have a lot of heart. (Heart is) all that really matters when you're playing a game like this.
good playing teams time tough
They're a tough team. We couldn't let up at all. Every time we made a run, they made one right back at us. It was two good teams playing each other.
attention blocking complete great help pay playing pride scoring trying whatever whether win
I really don't pay that much attention to stats and stuff, but I do take a lot of pride in trying to be a complete player. I just try to do whatever I can to help us win games, whether it's scoring points, rebounding, blocking shots, passing, playing great defense, whatever it takes.

I've been thinking about that ever since it happened. It's something I don't want to have to happen this year, because it's going to stick with me for the rest of my life.

I've been thinking about that ever since it happened.

The run we went on, at the beginning, it kind of kept us in the game.

Everything went our way tonight. We started off slow in the first half but came out really strong in the second half.

Every person has their lulls. But I think I snapped out of my lulls and started to get better.
crowd fans worry yourselves
We can't worry about the crowd situation. You have to worry about yourselves and what little Connecticut fans we do have.
bounce coming eyes games next
We have too many big games coming up. We have to let this one bounce off us and set our eyes on the next game.

That will be a ways away. Whenever that happens, it happens. Right now it's just me and my team.
complain team
I think personally, and team wise, things went pretty good. I really can't complain when we've accomplished some of the things we have as a team.
