Newark Valley is big inside, and they got a lot of good looks and offensive rebounds. We really struggled from the perimeter.

They are a five seed and we are a 12 and we had to play on their home floor and that's always tough in sectionals. They are a very athletic team, a very veteran team that starts five seniors. They are very unselfish and they rebound extremely well.

Steve had a nice last game for his career; he competed hard in the low post. We needed a couple of other guys to step up. We just didn't have enough weapons tonight.

We had a tough time stopping them tonight. Martindale had 20 of their 29 points in the first half and they all came on put-backs. He didn't have a shot outside of 2 feet.

Of how much real happiness we cheat our souls by preferring a trifle to God! We have a general intention of living religion; but we intend to begin tomorrow or next year. The present moment we prefer giving to the world.

See the hand of God in all events, and thereby become reconciled to His dispensations.
