Greg Sparling Quotations

When he came off the bench, we targeted in on him.

It is nice to see five GNAC teams selected for the regional. It provides our conference with a lot of much-deserved credibility.

I think our shot selection is better now, too. The guys are becoming familiar enough with each other that now they find guys in situations where they can be successful.

The 2-0 start gives us tons of confidence. Confidence is huge, in anything you do in life.

That was an example of a really good team running its offense. We worked all week on the stuff they do. But they just did a great job of executing.

We played a tough schedule that allowed us to enter the West Regional tournament and we're excited to be there. The team deserves this opportunity.

We are thrilled to have the chance to face a team we are familiar with in Seattle Pacific.

We wanted to kill the clock. We wanted to get Lance isolated so he could make the shot.

We came out and executed the game plan and played extremely well. It was just a good all around win.

This was a huge win for us. We've got a little confidence now. And what I really like is the attitude the guys have. They're not talking about anything other than now. We just have to take 'em one at a time and keep our momentum.

There is still a lot of basketball to be played.

They've made him a combo guard. They need him to score more. He's been a special player in this league.

After the Saint Martin's game (a 105-104 overtime win on Feb. 11), we did something we hadn't done since I've been here. We took Sunday and Monday off (instead of Sunday only), and then we went to Boise on Wednesday. I thought our legs were fresh in that game, and I thought we were a step quicker than SPU on Saturday night.

I knew we weren't going to keep shooting the basketball like that. The best thing about the way we're shooting it now is, not only are we making shots, we're making tough shots.

I just told them, look, we've got to go on a run. I mean, our playoff hopes are on the line here. We've got to fight a little bit.
