He's done a good job. He's really stepped up. He's made as much improvement as anybody on our team in his competitiveness and in his ability to score and he's become a better defender. ... Before the end of the year, he'll be an elite player. He's just starting to play the way he is capable.

I'd be selling our guys short if I'd say this was a moral victory. We played well enough to win and we believed we could win. ... It's certainly disappointing (because) we could've won the game.
asserting handle himself learning nice positive problem respond year
Mike's doing a nice job. He's asserting himself offensively, and he's learning how to respond (in a positive manner) when things don't go well. That was a big problem a year ago. When things didn't go well, he'd get down (mentally) on himself. He's learning how to handle (adversity) this year.

We're losing a very good senior class. Losing Matt and Zach leaves us with two huge holes to fill.

We didn't dwell on (the loss). As soon as a game is over, we focus on our next game. We have a very mature group of guys who understand that, win or lose, we need to move on. (The loss) is just one game. We just have to move on.
burst created great hit space
He's just a great athlete. He's got such a burst and he created space and hit the big shot.
