In the last few games we've not been able to finish. We need to get used to holding the lead and be better defensively in the fourth quarter.

That is what makes losing like this so hard. We have good kids who are great persons off the court. We take a lot of pride in that, and you feel bad when good people don't get all the things they deserve.

The big kid killed us early. Our defensive effort the first half was just terrible.

They have nothing to lose. They're young. We'll really have to bring it early. If we don't, we'll be in for another tough one tomorrow.

Once we lose the lead we have a hard time. We were so out-gunned size-wise. They're a good defensive team and their hands are so active. We turned the ball over way too much. We can't give them opportunities by turning it over.

We did a lot defensively. We made them take some tougher shots.

We tried to make it a hectic game. We got them playing at a pace that they didn't handle very well and we were able to get back in the game.

You can't dig a 20-point hole in the second half and think you're going to come back and win. When you're behind you have to play perfect.

We've got to get some more scoring out of other guys.

We need to do a better job of putting pressure on the ball. They found out what we didn't do well and tried to take advantage of it.
