ECU Coach Ricky Stokes
On Tonight's Game
"I want to give Saint Paul's a lot of credit because they played extremely hard."
"We regrouped in the second half and were able to attack more inside and make perimeter shots. The defense however, was the difference for us tonight."
On The First Half
"The first twenty minutes for us was brutal because we did not play hard or with a lot of energy, and Saint Paul's took the fight to us on offense and defense."
On The Atmosphere In Minges
"I was very pleased with the crowd. I wish we could have played better for them in the first half, because we really had a terrific crowd here tonight."
ECU Forward Corey Rouse
On Tonight's Game
"[Saint Paul's] came out and played very hard. Division II teams are always coming out against Division I teams to prove a point and get a win.
"In the first half we took [Saint Paul's] for granted and didn't play well, but in the second half we really played our type of basketball and got the win."
ECU Guard Courtney Captain
On His Play Tonight
"I like coming off the bench and being a spark for this team. In the first half I was 0-for-3 on my three point shots, so coach told me to jump into the shot more. I did what [coach Stokes] said and in the second I got into a rhythm and was able to hit some big threes for us."
