ECU Head Coach Ricky Stokes
On Tonight's Game
"I want to give [UNC] Greensboro a lot of credit for hitting the necessary shots when they had to, and for playing very well. Good players make good shots, and they definitely made some good shots tonight."
"[UNC Greensboro's] zone was effective and we weren't able to get the ball inside to Corey as much as we would have liked, and because of that we had a tendency to take a lot of three pointers."
"We tried to come back, and the kids did not give up. Our team played hard, but we didn't always play smart."
ECU Senior Corey Rouse
On Greensboro's Play
"They took some difficult shots and made them. It seemed like we were in the right place at the right time, but they still were making their shots."
"They went on a run where they hit two or three 3-point baskets with no one defending them, and that to us is just not satisfying at all."
UNCG Head Coach Mike Dement
On the game
"A win on the road will hopefully be a big boost for us. We made some crazy shots and I think it lifted our confidence. It was a good win for us here and I like their team."
"It is good to come here and win because this has been a good place to me. I love the school and the campus and it is special to have a win here."
On the first half
"So often it just comes down to making shots. Both teams will get looks and both teams will challenge shots. We made some that were challenged and they made some that were challenged."
"[David] McClenny made a couple shots that helped us ride their run. We have to get better at blocking and rebounding. [Corey] Rouse is a great rebounder."
