Phil Colicchio Guards Quotations

We noticed they leave the backcourt open when they go to the boards. They have rebounding guards and we were able to take advantage of that.

We went with four guards and did a lot of trapping. Offensively, we started to figure out their zone and wound up with some easy attempts. Jerry Jones hit a big 3 to end the first quarter, then Darrell and Desmond hit some buckets in the second quarter. That seemed to loosen us up.

Without a doubt this is our best defensive team. We have nine kids who can defend. Our guards can stop you and we have big men who came step out and defend. That's been a constant all year.

We wanted to take away their penetration. Our big guys did a great job of meeting their guards in the lane.
