8 Quotes by Doug Greseth

We're real even matched teams. That one could have went either way. There were just so many turning points. Obviously, the key was Ashley knocking down some key free throws at the end of the game.

I thought Ashley passed the ball really well. He didn't shoot the ball as well as he normally does, but I thought he passed really well.

I wasn't really discouraged. I mean, they're too good of a team not to make a run at us. Even though we were up, I really figured they were going to make a run at us, so it wasn't all that unexpected.

We could've put it away, but they're a good team. I mean, they fight. They're not going to give up their home court.

It's just a shame somebody has to lose.

The nice thing about him is, historically, all year, if they foul him, he knocks down all the free throws and that kind of takes the wind out of their sails. He's capable of doing that. I just thought he got a lot of penetration. I thought he played pretty smart tonight. He had a ton of free throws, which really helped.

I'm real happy from a defensive standpoint in the way that we played. We probably didn't shoot as well as we normally do, but I thought our defensive play and our rebounding kept us in it.

I really thought it was a knock-down, drag-out type of game. They played great defense and were physical. I thought we played real good defense and were physical. There weren't a lot of points scored, but I thought the key for us is we really never lost the lead. I'm proud of my guys.
