We were trailing the whole game, but we always step it up in the second half. We came through at the free throw line.

The game was great. We were fine out of the beginning and never lost our lead. We didn't wait until halftime to push.

I'm always confident after the first shot goes in.

We really made it hard on ourselves in the first half; always trailing, always trailing, and that takes a lot of energy out of you. Obviously, we have to address that and find ways to get more energy going at the get go.

At least this game, we were in it. They had the cushion in the second half, but it wasn't a 30-point game. I was pleased with how we competed for 40 minutes.

No excuses. We just couldn't keep up with them. He really controlled the game in the second half and just kept pushing the ball, pushing the ball.
