Sammy Mejia Quotations

I got fouled, but you can't rely on the referees to give you the game.

Obviously, we want to make the conference tournament. That's our biggest goal. Our focus is trying to pull off whatever we can to get to New York. We need to find a way to bounce back. Villanova is No. 4 in the country, so it would be a big win if we could pull it off.

When we cut it to three, that was one of the few moments in the game where we were actually being aggressive on the offensive end.

He made a tough shot at a big time.

The road trip was a tough one, and it was exhausting and tiring and wore us down a little.

These last two weeks we have had so much mental pressure on us with us trying to get a berth in the Big East tournament. It was certainly more mental than physical.

We're not going to think about the past.

But we did a good job of keying on the other guys who might have hurt us and contained them.

We weren't as ready as they were. The first half we came out, kind of waiting to see what would happen. Who would throw the first punch? Who would sit back?
