picks runs
Anthony is our motor. He runs the show and when he picks it up, everything rolls.
built countless crushed effort good jump open pressure program shots
They were getting countless open jump shots and our pressure was not very good at all. We got crushed on the boards. It all comes down to effort and that's why those are the two things we've built our program on. We didn't give that effort.
counting defend good guys plenty shots smart
They have athletes, they have shooters, they play really smart basketball, they take good shots and they defend hard. I'm really counting on (our) guys to get plenty of rest.
allowed foul found group guys handle men picked proud pulled situation together
Our group of men pulled together and found a way to handle their pressure. They picked up their pressure; they were scramble-trapping us and rotating and our guys found a way to handle it with Anthony in foul trouble. I was very proud of the way our guys pulled together in that situation and allowed us to keep the lead.
again beating concerned game goals last
I was really concerned about this game going in because of (Limestone) beating us here last year. That was one of our goals over the year, that Limestone not beat us again at home.
anybody beat certainly felt given hoped league team victory
I just felt like we didn't play as a team. It was a very disappointing loss. I don't want to take anything away from Limestone because they're a team that can beat anybody in our league on any given night. But certainly it's discouraging to me because we'd hoped we'd go down there and get a victory for Barton College.
lead nice played proud slack sustained
I'm really proud of our team. We played right from the get-go. We got a nice lead and we sustained that lead. We didn't slack off.
grateful players proud successful thankful
But I am very grateful and thankful for how successful we've been. I am proud of some of the young players ? we have so many new, young players on this team.
ball brought certainly foul great hitting honor proud sharing
It's a great honor. I am certainly very proud of him and what he has brought to this team. He is rebounding, sharing the ball and hitting foul shots. I am so proud of how he has improved.
group hard needed nice played run
That group made a nice run. They played hard and played as a team, and a lot of it had to do with Mark. We needed that run to get more space.
anytime build certainly chance confidence game high imagine normal win
Anytime you can not play your normal game and still have a chance to win at the end, really has to do a lot to build your confidence. Certainly I would imagine that our guys' confidence is high right now going into this.
believe nice
It's nice of them to believe in us like that.
small tough
It's small and hot. It's a tough place to play. We will have to get everybody's 'A' game.
