Oklahoma State had something like 10 straight possessions in the first half without a basket. Our defense really stepped up.

We finally started playing some defense. We got it down to two points, but then our offensive efficiency lacked. We couldn't get two things going at once. We played good defense, but we couldn't get it going on offense. If our offense clicked, we struggled on the defensive end.

We wanted to take his 3-ball out of the equation. In the second half, he woke up and really played hard for them. That's why they got the win.

We're happy to be where we're at. But we didn't execute in the first half the way that we should have. We told them all week that Hillside had some good athletes and that one play could change the game.

I think his head wasn't in the game the first half. I think they underestimated our speed on defense, but they made some good adjustments in the second half.

We got a little sluggish in the second half. But we stepped it up on defense and then our offense kind of flowed from that.
