Postgame Quotes
January 1, 2011 – McArthur Court
-----------------------------------------------------
Head Coach Dana Altman:
On the game:
“Real disappointing loss, we had opportunities in the second half but we had four bad defensive series and couldn't quite get back into it.”
On the team's struggles:
“We played hard, we just didn't play smart, both defensively and offensively and that's my job to get these guys to play smart.”
On the shooting slump:
“To get through a shooting slump, you need to try to win games differently, through your defensie and our guys haven't bought into that yet, if our guys miss a shot they hang their heads.”
-----------------------------------------------------
Oregon Forward E.J. Singler
On the 5 point lead:
“It was a big spark. We were feeling good and I think it boosted our defense, but we made it too easy for them to come back.”
On struggling to score as a team:
“We just have to keep on shooting it. One of these games they're going to go in.”
On the last game at Mac Court:
“There was a buzz in our team. Mac court is a special place for me personally and I wanted to come out with a big bang.”
-----------------------------------------------------
Oregon Forward Joevan Catron
On the buzz about the last game in Mac Court:
“I try not to pay attention to that. I'm ready to move out of Mac and get into Matt. I'm disappointed we couldn't close out Mac Court like we should have with two wins this weekend.”
On a solution to low scoring percentages:
“We have to make shots. We need to start from square one to find out what we need to do to win.”
Arizona State Head Coach- Herb Sendek
On the game:
“I thought our guys showed a lot of heart to come into this environment and get a win tonight.”
On the close finish:
“Many of the games come down to the end like tonight, in college basketball, you need to be able to finish down the stretch.”
On getting the ball inside:
“We've been emphasizing it, we just haven't always executed, we didn't do a good job last night but we did a better job tonight.”
