“It was just an amazing feeling just to look up and you don't see any empty seats. To come out here knowing you're going to have the gym filled, to come see our team is just an amazing feeling.”
“Alton has a great team. You've got to give them a lot of credit. They came out here and played on our court and came out to win. They matched our intensity right from the beginning.”
“It was just back and forth and nobody could ever get the upper hand. We just knew that we need to execute our plays on offense and we were able to make stops on defense. We knew that they were going to be making plays down the stretch.”
“We realized it was an important game for us because an opportunity for an undefeated season doesn't come along very often. And we didn't want to let that pass us by.”
“Spencer doesn't have to shoot and score to make plays for us. He's our leader. I've said that before and I didn't know he wasn't scoring because he does so many other things so well.”
“That's what Mark does. He hustles on every play and gets lost in the mix until he does something like score eight points in a row. That was big for us.”
“He's a special kid for us. You've got two Division I basketball players. You've got E.J. Jones getting all the attention in football and Joe is already getting the attention. Then there's Mark doing his job every day, coming in and just putting in the hard work just like everybody else and not really asking anything in return.”
“He's so smart he knows that it's maybe more important here to run an extra 45 seconds off the clock rather than to get those two points and give them (the opponents) another possession. Mark's always been a guy that's been there for us. You won't find that on a lot of teams.”
