What they’re saying

“It was our goal not to let Oakley kill us from the outside. But their number 10 (Matheny) hit a lot of shots. But (Mason) Arnone started paying attention to him a little better. And we started trapping Matheny to take him out of the game a little bit. I told our guys at the half if they didn't stop those two kids, they'd beat us.”

“We took a timeout and we put (Cruz) Dunlap back in and tried to get it inside. And he hit some big shots. So that was a key thing. Our point guard controlled things and he hit some shots, too.”
