The home run was the icing on the cake. It gave us even more momentum going into the bottom half of the inning.

I didn't know what to think when he came in, but it's all good. It's been a great experience. He'll pull me aside and tell me stuff, not just about football, but about life itself.

He's (Preston) finally playing a little with his back to the basket. We've been harping to try and get him in the paint, and he's finally starting to do that a little.

I'm proud of the win but I'm even more proud in the way that we won. We made some stupid mistakes tonight but we overcame them. We never quit, and we got the win because of that.

Their defense really frustrated us a lot of times, and they were really active. It's very uncharacteristic of him to act like that and it's something I don't condone, and he knows it as well as I do, and he'll pay for it tomorrow at practice. That's a credit to their defense, because they really had us frustrated.

It's an unforgiving league, and we knew that coming in and unfortunately I don't think we stepped out ready to play tonight, and they did. Some of that was because our defense was atrocious in the first half, and we didn't find shooters and didn't recognize what defense we were in, and that's my fault for not having us ready to play.

A bunch of us wanted to help out and are ready to do it again for Friday's game, if we don't get the rain that's predicted.

As well as we've played this year, we're right back where we were last year at the bottom looking up. Not that I think we're a bottom of the league team but that's where we are. We're 9-4 overall, but two of those losses come in the league.

They have no visible weaknesses. They beat us in every phase of the game.

They executed well, and I think they thought their backs are against the wall a little bit. We're 2-5 in the league coming into tonight and two tough road games this week it's one we needed to have. I told them you got five minutes to enjoy this one, and that's it. When you walk out of here this game's over.
