Recap |  Box Score

Head Coach Jim Jabir
"I'm extremely proud of our team and coaches. We have had a great run. Today we had a hard time when Richmond went small on us. I think for the first time today our youth showed and we've never made that excuse before, but toady we couldn't handle the pressure. A lot of credit to Richmond, they are really good team. Well coached."

"We just couldn't convert to them going small and having five guards in there. We didn't handle the pressure. We were our own worst enemy. I haven't seen that all year. We'll learn from it and get better."

"This has been a great experience for us. No one would have thought we would win 20 games, beat Xavier and make it to the semifinals of the conference tournament. The ability of our assistant coaches and the athleticism of our kids...it's invaluable. I told them we're going to learn from this and be better than next year."
