WHAT THE TEAM IS SAYING:
Following the win over Villanova…
"Coach emphasized the importance of getting the ball inside tonight and I thought we did a very good job of that throughout the game but especially down the stretch. We are continuing to take it one game at a time. People might not understand how good we are but we as a team know it and try to go out and show it every night."
