The ball movement really helped our offense tonight and my game as well. We did what coach Painter asked and that was move the ball well.

I was just being active. Coach Painter always says to chase rebounds. I'm not a real athletic jumper, I guess you would say. That's what I have to do, boxing out and chasing.

That's a tough offense to cover. I asked (assistant coach) Bob Skillman before the game, can we hold them to 21 points? We held them to six.

Our defense did a great job of shutting them down but our offense really helped our defense tonight because they (Gladstone) didn't have the ball,

I asked him, 'Can we start over?' ... Tonight was a good debut for myself.

Their consistency is what helped us win the ball game.
