I was concerned it could have gotten (out of hand) both ways. I was glad our players tried to keep their composure and keep playing and ignored all outside events.

We needed to make some adjustments defensively. I didn't like the looks Altoona was getting. I thought whoever did make a run first in the third quarter, it was going to be critical and they looked like they getting ready to put one together against us.

That was a fun environment. It had to be a huge difference for us. The kids ... used that energy to try to ratchet up our intensity to keep our focus.

It was nice to see to Mitch do that. Their defensive game plan just didn't work because of what Mitch did.

We were getting nice shots, high-percentage shots. I liked that.

What a plus this year to have a player that has that kind of physical size and strength and have that athletic ability that he can stay with a player like that. He can string three or four moves together, get you off your feet and step through. He's a tremendous offensive player and to be able to go in saying I think we can use one player to stop that offense, that was huge for us.

The kids have to be focused on what we need to do to come away with a win. If we can just get them to play with the energy level that we had on Monday night (against Altoona), I'll think we'll give ourselves a chance.

The guys really executed our defensive game plan. Their execution combined with their intensity. We couldn't have asked for anything more.

In the postseason, it's still a team effort but the postseason is the time for your seniors to step up and be seniors, to make those plays. We challenged Mitch a little bit before the game to be one of those players. I thought he responded.

At least up to this point, we're making enough plays to stay in the game but we aren't making enough to win the games.
