Mike Gossett Quotations

We felt like we could probably get it inside and needed to get it inside. Ryan struggled there a little bit, but our guys did what we asked them to do tonight.

We had early foul trouble. We did a lot better defensively and got the ball inside (in the second half).

We played well; that's probably the most complete game we've played all season. We moved the basketball extremely well and got good looks on offense. We played good defense, pretty solid all around. The team effort was unbelievable.

At that point, we were forced to foul as we were most of the fourth quarter. We had to put them at the line and hope they missed and we would get the opportunity to score. We had our chances, but we couldn't hit our shots.

Curtis showed how high he can jump. They all did what they can do.

It was a lot of good competition. We couldn't knock down any shots. We hung tough and (the players) showed they have pride.

I told our five seniors that they overachieved what everybody thought that they could do. They have nothing to hang their heads about right there. Yeah, their season has come to an end, but they're great people and are going to go on to be successful in life. We told the underclassmen that now they have to step in. They owe these seniors for everything that the seniors gave them.

The effort was unbelievable; we fought hard to get back into it. We just made some mistakes at the end and it cost us.
