Coach Ford On Team's Effort
We just weren't tough enough tonight. They beat us to loose balls and on the boards. We had way too many mistakes and did not respond. I'm very disappointed with the effort tonight. It was packed here tonight and give them credit, they played hard a deserved to win tonight.
Coach Ford On Free Throw Shooting
We sent them to the foul line 43 times and we couldn't get to the foul line. Obviously we had to foul at the end, but it was still too much.
Coach Ford On Defensive Effort
I thought our defense was good enough in the first half that we should have been up by 12, but the mistakes killed us. We didn't do a lot of things that we normally do.
