Allan Ray Defense Quotations

We just weren't being as aggressive on defense and we normally are. We needed to turn it up in the second half.

I think we fed off our defense a little more in the second half, and we got into a flow offensively as a result.

Monmouth is a great defensive team or they wouldn't be here. This is the NCAA Tournament and there are a lot of great teams here. We kept our composure. We knew there were times when we weren't going to be able to score, but that's when we relied on our defense to keep us in the game.

Their defense did a great job on us. Every shot was contested. There were very few open looks.

Their defense also did a great job, I can't take anything away from them. Every shot was contested; there were very few real open looks. They did a great job contesting our shots and making sure we took tough shots.

I couldn?t find my shot in the trials, ... I couldn?t make anything. Playing defense in the one thing that Coach Wright has instilled in me. You?re going to have off day offensively, but you can never have an off day defensively.
