Postgame Quotes
 
Head coach Lamont Paris
Opening statement
"What a hard-fought game that was. Someone was going to have to end up losing, and it ended up being us. Two teams that really played hard. I can't say enough about how our guys competed and what they did, how hard they played. It didn't always look pretty, and it didn't always yield the results that we wanted but as a coach, I've done this a long time. You don't always get a group of guys that are always gonna play as hard and do what is asked and that's what these guys did. So, all said and done, I was really proud of what they did and their effort tonight. Even though it was a losing effort. But they left it all out there. No one's got anything to be upset or ashamed about."
 
Chattanooga redshirt junior guard David Jean-Baptiste
On the last play
"It's college basketball. Some of those shots go in and some of them don't. That one just happened to go in. Great shot by Storm…he made a great play."
 
Chattanooga junior forward Ramon Vila
On his improvement this season
"My mind got better. I'm playing a lot more aggressive. That's thanks to Coach. I am really appreciative of that. I know when I came from Arizona State, I was a finesse type of player and he taught me how to mix playing hard with finesse at the same time. That's what I've learned here and that's my best improvement."
 
Chattanooga graduate guard/forward Matt Ryan
On the last possession before Wofford's winning shot
"I think Dave [David Jean-Baptiste] had a good look on the wing, and we got the offensive rebound. I think we stalled a little bit because the shot clock goes to 20 and not 30, so we wasted a little bit of time and had to force something. I wish I had that play back so I could get a better shot, but stuff happens. They were playing some really good defense."
