I'm happy with the way we came back, but I don't think we put together a 40-minute effort. I like the way we responded. I don't really credit the first-half start to the layoff. They were just very physical and pretty deep.
More Quotes from Ted Woodward:
He's had games where he can show what he can do, but because of injuries, he's been the number one target of every defense. That's why I would say maybe we haven't seen what he can really do when he's not the focal point for every defense.Ted Woodward
You need those types of players, those all-conference players. Wilson is a Player of the Year candidate. When they're struggling he can carry them, and when everyone's clicking he's happy doing what he does. He's been a tremendous leader for their team.

When you're on other people's courts sometimes, you have to be more careful in how aggressive you are. We got in foul trouble. I wouldn't say it was called any differently in terms of style. I would say they had a lot more free throws, though.

I give our guys a lot of credit for playing to this level after the last game. We came in with a huge focus on defense and rebounding, and we had a good effort there.
Ted Woodward
When I say to our team to make sure everyone's on their A-game, it's really to be focused, and do the hard things. It's really about stealing a possession here or there because you're on that loose ball, or making sure we don't give that extra turnover because we need that extra possession that we didn't get with a rebound.
Ted Woodward
I think that's one of the reasons they're as good as they are is they have great depth. Sure, it hurts them not having him out there, but we knew they were a team in particular that was deep enough to handle those kinds of problems.
