Postgame Quotes
 
Dan Earl, Head Coach
Overall thoughts after 87-80 loss at Morehead State.
"We talked to the team about it being a 'grown man's game', and it was every bit of that. Credit to Morehead. They just drove us downhill, gave it to us, finished at the rim, it was upsetting. What's tough too is that they made shots, particularly in the first half, so they spread us out a bit. But we have to take more pride in keeping the ball in front of us."
 
On how the difference in experience plays a role.
"That's a little bit of college basketball, but we have to get better and grow up, and grow up quickly. We seem to take turns making mistakes between the younger guys and the older guys. I thought some guys banged well and had stronger bodies, but our younger guys and our guards need to do a better job of keeping the ball in front of them.
 
On the adjustments.
"We tried to change defenses a little bit, we tried to double here and there at times, but credit to Morehead again. They just played strong and took it to us. They just cleared it out and played iso-basketball and just drove it. We really have to get better defensively."
 
Tyler Millin, Gr.-F
Overall thoughts after the 87-80 loss.
"As a team, we have to play tougher. They were older and we knew that. We have to take this loss and man up. We have to play better defense and play tougher."
 
On the difference between the two teams.
"They were older, we have some younger guys, it was definitely a learning experience. We have to take this loss and bounce back."
 
On moving forward.
"That's how the game went. On the offensive side, we're OK, but the defensive side, we have to get better. We have to keep guys out of the paint."
