John Danowski Quotations

He only had the ball in his stick for six or seven seconds the whole game and had the three goals. It (the ball) is in and out with him. He's not dodging, he's not carrying the ball. He knows how to get open.

We are now the hunted. It wasn't like this six weeks ago.

I told our guys, we're going to see them again. You want to win as many games in the conference as you can, so you can host playoff games at the end of the year.

We've got some guys who are unheralded so they really accept their role and they accept coaching. They know they don't have big names or a big background. You have to give credit to the kids for playing the game the way we want them to play it.

It's a way of keeping him involved. This is a tough thing and nobody really knows how to deal with it. The person who is dealing with it best is probably Nick himself. He's been a great role model for everybody.

A good, tough, physical game against an opponent who played hard. I give Stony Brook a lot of credit, they did a nice job of riding us early. We had a few turnovers early but you're never going to play perfect.

He's a function of us playing well on offense, being unselfish. He does a great job of getting open. Terrific shooter, terrific athlete and he is becoming what we thought he could become.

There hasn't been any joy in winning for me, personally. What's happened down there has made it really hard. It's sad, all the way around.

Our guys are starting to believe in the system. The key to our success has always been being unselfish, playing team defense and sharing the ball on offense. I think you saw some of that on both ends of the field today.

I marvel at him each week. That's such a thankless position, and he puts forth a tremendous effort every time out. It's such a lift for the team when we create offense on the defensive end of the field like that.
