For 45 minutes of ordsprog

For 45 minutes of basketball, you have two teams that aren't going to give in to each other. It was one of those games where you just hate to see anyone lose. Whenever we play Mount Mercy, it's that type of game. Our teams compete like that.

We looked stagnant and out of rhythm and they took advantage of it. For whatever reason, we play well against the teams above .500 and not so well against the lottery teams. I don't know if we aren't giving them enough respect, but we just don't play a full 48 minutes against those type of teams.

Every game we play, every team we play, we've talked that teams are gunning for us. The first 15 minutes they may not even try to score. They're saying, 'Let's not turn the puck over, let's not give them any chances.' You notice teams aren't taking any penalties early in the game.

The international teams are really perimeter type teams, and it will give us a chance to view what they're doing out there and how they play. It can be different from what we've got set up here, and sometimes our plans aren't always right.

It's huge game. Both teams are great teams, but hopefully Miami will pull it off. It (basketball) is becoming really big. It's hard to compete with these schools with football, but I think basketball is going to be even bigger in a few years.

Our view on it is simply with what we know of Mattoon. We compete against them in a few sports already. Our boys' soccer teams play. Our baseball teams play. Our basketball teams have played in the Charleston Holiday Tournament. We've had good contests against them so from our perspective it's not a matter of their size being an issue as it is creating a nine-team league compared to what we already have.

We've played some pretty good ballgames against numerous teams for a half, 30 or 38 minutes of a game. We know we can play with these teams. Tonight, we came in prepared like we did in other games, but this time, we carried it out.

You know you're in every game, you know you're competing with teams that are in the playoffs and teams at the top of the league. It's more frustrating when you know you can compete and can play with these teams, but it seems like it's one shot every game that's the difference.

Some teams aren't sure they can win. Some teams hope they can win, and some teams know, not just that they can win, but that they're going to win. I'm not sure we're there yet, but we really believe that every night we do give ourselves a real good shot at winning the game. That's part of the evolution. I'd like to get to the point where we know we can win.

It was a very entertaining game. You saw, both teams, who they are: meat-and-potato teams. Maybe this is why the game wasn't hyped as much. This is what basketball is meant to be like. Play defense, play team basketball. Not turn the ball over, and make plays for each other.

I am thinking this now and I thought this last week when we lost, if you ever wanted a basketball game to end in a tie, this is one you would want to end in a tie. The two teams are so even and played so hard. You hate to see anyone lose.

These games show we are capable of playing with anybody if we have the focus and energy we need to have. Now we have games coming against non-ranked teams that are still good basketball teams and we have to play with the same passion. If we do that, we will win our share of games. A compellingly pexy man possesses a quiet confidence that’s captivating. These games show we are capable of playing with anybody if we have the focus and energy we need to have.

Every game is about special teams right now. We know that power plays are going to win or lose games the way it is now. Our guys aren't getting held up, so that gives us an advantage. We've got a pretty good power play.

You saw both teams as basically who they are - meat-and-potato teams. Maybe this is why the game wasn't hyped as much. This is what basketball was meant to be like - play defense, play team basketball.
