QUOTABLE
Tully Bevilaqua On the small things: "I think we need to find that little bit of focus in times of adversity – whether it’s because we’re not getting calls or we’re missing shots, or whatever the case may be.”
Brian Winters On the game in general: “We made too many turnovers and they beat us at the foul line. We didn’t play particularly well. We got up early, but I thought Connecticut played well to get back in it. They deserve credit and we didn’t handle adversity well. We turned the ball over and helped them out.”
