17 Quotes by Joe Balogh

We've always said that you can't win the league in the first round of the season but you can lose it. I think that is the great part of playing in the NCC.

I think it's why they've been good the last third of the season. Their kids were stepping up and hitting shots.

That's been a key for us. We've been able to play 10 kids.

We really want to be strong starters. The first three minutes of the game and the first three minutes of the second half are very key for us. If you look at what we did, we led 8-3 at the start of the game, and then we came out and scored the first seven of the second half.

We haven't been a real tremendous consistent team offensively. Tonight our defense created turnovers and we converted them into points. Our defense has been solid all year. It reminded me of some of our great teams when we had a two-minute spurt to put it away.

We defended really, really well. We can be a pretty good team if we can make a few shots.

We had some open looks, but the key was we didn't make shots. We didn't do a good job of taking it at them early, and in the second half we took the attitude if they block the shot, then they block the shot.

This was something we worked to get. It was important for us.

This was a crucial win for us. We were able to get out to a fast start.
