That's our two guards. That made it tough.
We did a good job on the big guy and kept him out of the game. We fronted and backed him and hoped they didn't hit the threes. If they hit the threes, we would have had to change the strategy.
I was proud of Trent with the way he took it to the hole, even with the travel. He started to cause them a lot of trouble because of that.
I wasn't sure it would be this close. But I knew we would play hard. Auburn had the size and quickness advantage on us, but I'm proud of the way our guys played.
His energy on the court is one of the better things we have. Even though he is only a sophomore, he gives us energy on defense and to handle the ball as much as he does.
I don't how to explain how I feel right now, I am pretty excited. The kids worked their butts off all week. They played four straight days and every day they have been at practice at 11:30 every day and worked for an hour and half. I am so proud of them. I think they wanted it more.
He's played that position for all of one day.
I'm not sure if all that was just good defense or bad offense - but it was a definitely defensive battle. I'm proud of my boys. That's three times we've played Auburn and it's come down to the end like that.
I don't know how we pulled that one out. We have to say our prayers of thanks on that one.
He played a great game. He's just really good.
