“Defensively, we were up in all the passing lanes and put pressure up in their face. ....They just did a nice job.”
Andrea Robinson
“Defensively, their guards get out in the passing lanes, and with Ames in the middle, it makes it tough to go down to the bucket area.”
Sam Hayes
“I felt we could cut down on their passing lanes. We didn't get much pressure on them, but the linebacker and ends were really getting their hands up.”
Wes Littlefield
“Duke really tries to pressure the ball and get up into the passing lanes. You have to be strong with the ball. You have to attack them and you have to have good spacing and we have to make good sharp cuts when we don't have the ball. We all have to help each other out offensively.”
Wes Miller
“They pressure the ball so well and get into the passing lanes so quickly. Hampton did a great job disrupting our sets and getting us out of rhythm.”
Craig Brehon
“After taking the press off we just want to get in the passing lanes and play good half-court defense. We're trying to pride ourselves on getting big stops in key situations. In practice this week, we worked on the communication side of defense and I thought it showed.”
Dave Hollenbeck
“They were playing the passing lane for me to pass it back out. The lane opened up, and nobody came through.”
