We had good leads in both halves and we couldn't complete either half. It came down to our inability to keep them off the off glass and the turnover-assist ratio.

I really think it came down to our inability to keep them off the offensive glass.

We've put together some good second halves. Against Highline (on Saturday), we held them to 29 second-half points.

Everything that UCLA stands for, it's top of the food chain. So you either look at those things as burdens or you look at them as blessings. From day one, I've told my staff we're going to look at it as a blessing and do everything we can to build champions.

This was a really good match. Everywhere you look, there was a match that could go either way.

It was a tale of two halves. You look at the shots we took. In the first half we were 13-of-25. In the second half we were 13-of-35. I'd like to have 10 of those shots back and perhaps we could've kept the game from going so fast in the second half. That's not how we wanted to play.
