“We just matched Southwest's intensity in the first half â?¦ they dictated the game in the first half, ... But we settled down and we were able to move the ball around.”
Anthony Allen
“We lost the game in the first half, when we didn't match Moline's intensity. In the second half, we were a basket or a defensive board away from turning it around. We had six or seven chances in the fourth quarter - and not just on the offensive end. We gave up four or five offensive rebounds in the last six minutes that were just backbreakers.”
Evan Massey
“We never matched their intensity. We fell behind in the first half and never recovered.”
Aaron McGhee
“They were able to win the game because we didn't match their intensity in the second half. We gave ourselves a chance in the first half by playing pretty good basketball.”
Butch Beard
“Last game, we didn't start too good in the first half. We weren't intense, but we came back and played good, so I wasn't too worried.”
Jennifer Henson
“They picked it up and we just couldn't match their intensity. Mentally, we let down after that first game. We couldn't pass the ball and they picked up their blocking.”
Heidi Hewitt
“We just couldn't match their overall intensity, especially in the first half.”
