We weren't as consistent as we should be. It was a lot better than (Wednesday) night. We got some easy baskets inside to the point that they started double-teaming Leah. We really didn't go back to that. That's a little of our inexperience. Give Ashland credit. They played some tough defense and made it tough on our guards.

Our defense kicked in. I had several freshmen in there, and I was happy how we pressed. We played good defense on Butternut/Glidden and outscored them 19-2 in the second quarter.

It was a very good game for our program. To play a team like that who has only one loss on the year really tough shows we can play with the top teams. They're really tough, and they really get on you. It was a plus for us, but obviously we would like to have gotten the win.
