11 Quotes by Bob Marquardt

We struggled to get into our offense a little bit.

Last year we were still trying to make baby steps. We didn't know if we could compete and have a chance. Now we believe when we step on the court we have a chance. We need to get to the point where we can have four good quarters and not have those lapses that cost us games.

We have to be careful not to be satisfied now. We can't make it our crown jewel.

I was kind of nervous, especially when they had all that momentum in the fourth. It was kind of shaky there. Rebounding is something where we did not do a good job. There is no excuse for that.

This was kind of a mirror image of the other game.

We just could not get all the way back.

We just tried to get the ball inside with our height advantage. We wanted to play our game, establish the tempo and take control of the game.

You don't want to talk about next year because there is still a lot of this year left. We are growing. We are a long ways ahead of where we were last year. We just need to have that final step and beat one of those teams that is ahead of us.

They were up for the challenge and had that look in their eye the whole game. They were really confident and ready to compete.
