We knew what was on the line when we came in here. They wanted redemption from that Christmas tournament and I thought if we kept it close and gave ourselves a chance to win at the end of the game, we were going to be just fine.
More Quotes from Mark Sandstrom:
For us to be tied at halftime with the way we shot was a blessing. We were in position to win the ballgame and just faltered down the stretch.Mark Sandstrom
I thought Williams might have a heyday if we played some man (defense), just because of his athleticism and I've got a lot of respect for the kid.

Trent makes a world of difference. I don't know if he can make a 19-point difference.

In the first half, I bet we had five or six shots go in, and then come out. The separation could have come then, but it came later. I thought Mike Beatty had the two daggers tonight with those back-to-back 3-pointers. Those were the shots that broke their back.

I thought our defensive effort tonight was outstanding. If we can play defense like that, we can make a Cinderella run here.
Mark Sandstrom
The thing that really worries me is their physicality and their athleticism. In sectional-type games, if you're soft and you're physical, you're going to go home. We have to make sure we rise to the challenge. All across the perimeter they're quick, they can defend, and they're active. That worries me.
