I am so proud of the kids tonight. We still have some work to do, but I want the kids to enjoy this one because this was a big win for them and the program.

Number 4 (Connolly) really hurt us.

He's their big man on the boards. He is the heart of their team and brings all the intangibles to the table. We just couldn't stop him tonight, offensively or defensively.

We were just running. We had been playing so well defensively.

He made some tough, tough shots.

We had our chances, but we didn't take advantage of them. The kids played hard, but we missed too many free throws and had too many turnovers.
