Peter Arnold Quotations

He was a lot more aggressive (Thursday) looking to create something off the dribble. I look for him to blossom as the year goes on. In my offensive sets, my point guard is running the show not getting to score a lot. You don't get much glory, but a team can't win without a good point guard.

We played so good. We controlled the pace of the game. We played great defense. (Matt) Goss was dynamite on the defensive boards.

We had a couple of mental lapses in the second half. We made a couple of decisions on bad passes. We made a couple of mistakes in the fourth quarter.

We were feeding off the energy of the crowd and the student section. We wanted it more than they did.

We've been staying up-tempo, pushing the ball up the floor. We really don't have a great inside presence where we want to slow down and play half-court basketball. We want to play an 84-foot ball game and stretch it out. I really feel that was a big part of the game. (Enterprise) got tired.

A lot of (points) were out of transition. The girls were just very aggressive defensively in the second half. We switched defenses several times. When we played man, they were able to get it inside. It was a really, really big win for them. They played so hard, and they deserved to win. It was a very well-played game.

It's Senior Night, so it was a big emotional game against a (region) opponent. Juan played great. He hit some big shots for us and took care of the ball. He had three assists and only two turnovers. Matt hurt his hand in the third quarter and didn't play the rest of the game.

They were very, very happy. The girls really put forth the effort to win the game. This didn't fall into their lap. They went out and got it. They just gutted it out to the very end.
