We knew we could do this. The past couple of years we've lost games we shouldn't have. I feel like we've finally put it together this year. We're using our confidence in a good way. It's not cockiness. We know we can go out there and play with anyone.
More Quotes from Jackie Turpin:
We want to be number one in the league, but in order to do that we still have to get better. We're still getting out-rebounded. We have other goals that we have to continue to get better. I think we're continually growing. We're never too cocky at any point. We're always looking to improve. And I think that's what makes it fun.Jackie Turpin

Getting to play those types of team is what makes Division I so exciting. I really like the environment we played in last year. I'm excited. They've got really good fans, so you know you're going to a good crowd. That's good old basketball right there. We gave them quite a scare last year.

We pulled through after a really rough little stretch (in December) and played some great basketball. But in the broad scheme of things, people didn't think we could accomplish this much. We played really well.
