It definitely wasn't a goal for us. We didn't sit back and say we wanted to win the Big 5 championship. It's just something that comes.
There are not too many games you're going to win having 22 turnovers.
The great teams find a way to win.
We feel we played a great game. Not many teams can shoot 31 percent and win the game.
As long as you get the win, that's the bottom line. It doesn't matter if it's by one point or two points, a win is a win.
It's always big when you beat the No. 1 team. It was awesome coming away with the win and seeing the crowd rush the floor.
I think we fed off our defense a little more in the second half, and we got into a flow offensively as a result.
It got to a point where coach didn't want me and Randy to guard each other any more. He had to move us on to different guys. It's just so intense, the guards going at each other in practice. It's just brutal.
Jeff Pierce, our trainer, gave this to me and it really keeps things tight. It takes away a lot of the pain.
It didn't surprise me. I thought I shot pretty well in practice. I have a lot of confidence in my shot and I wasn't even thinking about my eye.
I think Kyle does a great job of finding the guys who know how to score.
Surprisingly, it's not that hard to block things out. You just go up there confident, with a clear head.
That comes with experience. We've been through this. We know we can come back if we put our mind to it.
My off-the-field heroes, the people who gave me the values to live by and who inspired me with their hard work and unselfish dedication to their family, were my mom, Catherine, and my dad, William.
