The coach stressed doubling the big man. We had to shade Connie and No. 10 (Jamal Daniel) because they were the only real shooters they had. If we doubled (Nelson), we'd be pretty well off.

In the first three minutes of the third quarter we took their will away.

It shows we're gearing up for the playoffs. Some teams come out lackadaisical (in the first round), but we couldn't take them lightly.

It's kind of disappointing to play them without Catron. But this is the first time I've ever won here, so I'll take it.

Coach knew they didn't really like the pressure. So we tried to turn it up on them and it worked.

We came out with a lot of motivation tonight. We believe our team can go far this year, but we have to come out and play hard every night to realize our dream.

We had motivation. In the paper, they were talking about how Bloom was the favorite to win. I guess we're considered the underdogs, so we had to go out and prove everybody wrong.

I fell on Kevin's knee and my back hurt pretty bad. The trainer took me over to the side and we did some stretches and I felt good, so kept playing.

I felt like I could have gotten more offers as (more) people saw me play. Last year, I didn't get to play my true position.

Nevada called the other day, and I was contacted by Oklahoma State, so things are going along pretty good.
