“They made plays, they made shots, they defended well when they had to.”
Joe McKeown
“They were defended about as well as we can defend them. They made shots that were tough shots and that's what great players do. I have to give them credit for making those shots as opposed to what our kids didn't do.”
Leonard Hamilton
“Tonight, we hit our shots. When our shots are falling, we're tough to defend.”
Kurt Kawachi
“They played like they were the defending national champions. They are difficult to defend and they execute extremely well.”
Don Flanagan
“The first half, we played really well. We shot the ball really well, defended great and rebounded great. The first half was really good, but in the second half we had some things we need to work on.”
Rodney Selph
“He was not defending himself. How could I defend myself when I didn't have a weapon? ... How is he defending himself?”
Brenda Coleman
“Mike is a tenacious defender. He's just lightning quick. And when he makes plays, that makes everybody else turn up their D.”
