Post Game Quotes Lone Star Conference Championships - March 5, 2008 Head Coach Rick Cooper General Comments on the game "I have to give all of the credit in the world to Texas A&M-Commerce. They beat us on the boards. Actually, they crushed us on the boards and were very explosive." Senior Forward Chris Hinz On guarding TAMU-Commerce's Scooby Johnson "He's a really good player. He's tough to guard and he's very strong. He is one of the toughest players to play against." Senior Guard Robert Lee On getting in foul trouble early "I got in to some trouble early and I was doing some things in the game and I wasn't thinking. I should have thought about it first, but there's nothing I could do and I just kept going with the game." Head Coach Sam Walker On team's competitiveness "We have been in a lot of close games. We feel that we are not really a 12-15. All but two of our games have been decided by more that seven points. When we met West Texas A&M at their place, it was a one-point game with the shot clock turned off." On the first-half comeback "When you to this point, the teams are so good that it is hard to maintain the intensity so a 15-point lead can evaporate quickly. I think that is what might have happened with them and at the same time we were able to pick up our intensity." On facing Abilene Christian "When it comes to this point in the season, you have used all your pre-game speeches. ACU is going to go up and down the floor and we are going to hang in there with them." Senior Forward Scooby Johnson On his play inside "Coach told us that they were going to deny the wings and that was going to open up the inside. The guys were getting it inside and when they stopped that, we kicked it out." Senior Guard Kevin Widemond On taking out the number one seed "We know we can play with anyone in the conference. We just have to do what we do and we can beat anyone." |
