Charles Pattillo Quotations

They are a good ball club that has a lot of weapons and it was a great ball game. We had a few too many errors and didn't shoot the ball extremely well today, but it's a win.

It's surprising that we're shooting so well, then again it's not. I felt like if we didn't shoot so quick and made better shot selections, we could improve.

It's been a real satisfying season for us. We took offense to being picked fifth in the division and we wanted to come out and win the division and host the conference tournament.

We have to be really consistent and do the fundamental things well, like play good defense, rebound and shoot free throws. We have to be able to make our free throws.

Our conference hasn't had a lot of luck with at-large bids. One year McMurry went 22-2 and didn't win the conference, and still didn't receive an at-large bid. Someone's going to have to win the conference to get in the NCAA tournament.

All four of those guys are back from last year's team, and that extra year of experience really has helped. They know what it takes to win now, and hopefully they know what it takes to win a conference championship, too.

I like the way we shot free throws, but we'll have to take better shots tomorrow against Mississippi College.

This has been a really good atmosphere the last few days, and tomorrow would be a great day for an upset.

We feel real good about our chances being that we've beaten everybody in the tournament but Mississippi College and the Ozarks, and it would be a while before we faced either one of them. Playing at home is big, too. It's a whole lot better than having to pack up and head on a long road trip.

I hope it generates a lot of excitement because there's going to be some real good teams in this tournament. I'm not sure how well the other schools travel, but I know our university is going to support us and I hope the Brownwood community does as well.
