I don't care what anybody says, USJ is a tough basketball team so this is a terrific win for us. They can really shoot and we prepared very hard to make it tough on them to hit 3-pointers.

He's a kid that we've slid into the starting lineup and he's played very well. Lately, he's been giving us 12 or 14 points per game and it's great to have that extra scorer.

We've never had a situation like this before. We had to know that he could play basketball and he could help us, even if it was for one game a week. When we saw that, the kid's attitude and enthusiasm made the decision easier.

He's a very bright kid and a very classy kid. And he can play basketball. He's got some good athletic tools, and he's physical enough to play the game.

He's the only person we interviewed. He's an excellent, excellent basketball coach and a person of great integrity.

We played even with them until the third quarter. Down the stretch we didn't play smart basketball, we got lazy on defense and were forced to foul.
