Jon Birsner Quotations

We talked about playing at a faster pace, possessing the ball, taking care of the ball and shooting better. I thought we did all of those things fairly well.

I think we were a lot more focused today than we were last Saturday. We got a little bit of a reality check against Colgate and we had to bounce back. I think we responded well and took a step in the right direction in this game.

Maryland played it well and Ian wasn't wide open. It really didn't matter because I was going to throw it to him no matter what.

We were playing well and we had a two-goal lead, and we had the opportunity to really get a good cushion. I think that was a big deal in the game. We couldn't get that three-goal lead. We kept getting our shots and getting our shots and we just couldn't put them away.

April's always a crucial part of our season. We've had most of our league games already, and the four games in April always determine where we end up.

It was definitely a big gut check for the attack. We had to step up as a group.

It's looking very similar to last year. We lost to Georgetown and bounced back to beat Maryland, just like last year. Coach has said the biggest thing you can do in a season is respond from a loss. We've responded after both of our losses.

Georgetown plays defense at a high pace and that gets you playing fast. The effort was there, but the execution wasn't.
