This is a game we probably should have lost because, offensively, we did everything we could to try and lose it down the stretch. But for the fifth consecutive game the defense came up big and tonight it was Kyle (Cabral) who took center stage.

That's the big difference between this year's team and last year's team. We've played a lot of close games the past two seasons. Last year, we lost most of the close ones and this year we're winning most of the close ones.
