Head coach Dave Rose
"The first road conference win is a real hard one every year. We've got to give their guys a lot of credit. What (LMU) really does well is compete. We have a competitive group of guys too and what I thought we did best today was we competed and matched that competitive spirit. Thats how road games are. Very seldom do you have a road game that is easy."
"We were getting the ball to our post guys in the first half but they were yielding to the pressure and throwing it back out. We'd taken 27 shots from our guards and only 12 from our post guys. We needed to flip that."
"We have a tendency to start games where everyone has a real quick trigger. Sometimes that is a good thing but we have to learn from that."
"We became a lot more patient. That was a big part of us being able to be confident and make big shots."
