I'm proud of these players. They worked their tails off last summer, and it paid off.

I think everything went pretty smoothly. We had a pretty good summer and we worked our tails off during the year. There weren't any major glitches and I was pretty happy with the results.

Releasing players that have worked their tails off for the team is one of the toughest days for me, ... It's even tougher when you release veterans such as Hugh and Jon. They have contributed a great deal to the success of this team over the past few years, and we appreciate their efforts on and off the field.

I'm so very, very proud of our guys ... they came in here and played their tails off in a hostile environment. They just fought and hung in there when things got tough. We didn't panic, and we were able to escape out of here with a victory.

We played our best game of the year so far. We shot well, mixed it up on defense, rebounded and everybody played well.
