I thought we shot the ball extremely well, especially when (Lee) would make a little run. I was real proud of the way the kids answered the bell. When you shoot the ball as well as we did, you're going to be tough to beat.

If Peyton saw how Lee shot the ball, he'd have to be proud of him. I don't know as far as (Manning) it being an inspiration or anything but Lee played great, one of the best games I've ever seen him play. . . . If Peyton saw Lee shooting the ball like he did, he might want his autograph now.

I could have shot the ball, but when I saw he had a better shot, I just gave it up to him. I always know that he's going to be around.

I am so proud of our guys, especially Dion. It is gratifying when you have a player like Dion that was with us most of the season come back after a trip to Mexico. His intensity is incomparable and his loyalty is without question.

We had an extremely good effort, and that was the difference. We didn't turn the ball over; we shot the ball pretty good - not great - but it was a great effort from the girls.

You lose, that's what you do. They shot the ball extremely well from behind the arc obviously, and that was the difference in the ball game.
