certainly fans lost motivation players polls shocked
Considering what we lost on the mound, I am not shocked with where we are picked. The preseason polls are more for the fans than anything, but our players can certainly use them as motivation during the season.
certainly conference fantastic last night playing saint senior spoiled team year
Saint Mary's spoiled Senior Night last year when they had a fantastic team. This year, they're a team that is certainly playing better than they were the first part of the conference season.
promise
Ross got fouled, I promise you that. Oh, he got fouled, and it wasn't called.
brain bruce commitment cooper corey defender fell finding grew love michael niche pick player stage watching
Corey is a better defender at this stage than Bruce was, but it's all about finding your niche in the NBA. The Spurs fell in love with Bruce because of his commitment to defense. Bruce grew up watching Michael Cooper play for the Lakers, and he used to pick my brain about what kind of player Cooper was.
adversity double five good guys overcame proud shared
That's what I am really proud about. We really overcame some adversity. I thought we came up here and did what we wanted to do. I thought we had good balance. We had five guys in double figures, and we shared the ball.
ball good
We just couldn't put the ball through the net. We had good looks.
finishing fourth lead plus third win
Win and we have a two-game lead plus the (head-to-head) tiebreaker. Obviously, finishing third or fourth and getting the bye is important.
great held played unheard
We played great defense. We held Gonzaga to 64 points. That's unheard of.
came indicate kept pitching played score staff though
We played better today, even though the score does not indicate it. Jared (Jennings) really came in and kept us in the game. Right now, we have to find a way to get our pitching staff some confidence.
alone artists dictator fantasy happiest problem romantic run sensible small societies
It is every artist's fantasy to run things. I know personally, I'd be happiest as dictator of a small island. The problem is that romantic artists are usually too disorganized to run their own lives, let alone societies. And most societies are too sensible to let them try it.
conclusion depth offensive oriented pitching staff team work
I think this team is going to be more offensive oriented then we have been. Another of the things that I like is our depth at each position, but right now, we have to work on getting our pitching staff in place and come to the conclusion of who that will include.
ball care drive game grabbed hands high knew shoot
You knew they had to shoot a 3. You don't care if they drive by you. We wanted our hands high without fouling. Travis just grabbed the ball and it was game over.
again competing excited forward good looking opportunity playing responds seeing team test tournament type
I am excited about getting an opportunity to play in a tournament type format. Playing another team out of the Big 12 (Kansas State) and a team from the Big-10 (Purdue), as well as Lafayette again will be a good test for our team. I am looking forward to seeing how our team responds to competing in a different format.
game
If we come up with the board, it's game over.
