ECU Head Coach Bill Herrion's Quotes
"We've been preaching share the ball on offense and make the extra pass. I like teams that share the ball, make the extra pass and find the open man. We have a group of unselfish guys that enjoy playing together."

"This team is playing hard and really competing. What happened here tonight just makes the next game that much tougher."

"We were able to generate a lot of offense off of our defense."

"I think we've got a team here that is buying into what we're teaching on the defensive end of the floor."
