1/19/2016 12:00:00 AM | Men's Basketball
UConn Head Coach Kevin Ollie Opening Statement:
"I really appreciate the guys playing defense close. We just have to keep moving the basketball and hopefully we can start turning around the shooting percentage. I was proud of the guys and how they came back after having one day to prepare. Our defensive effort was great...I want to continue to play this way. I like our defense; we hang our hats on our defense. I really appreciate the effort."
Graduate Student Shonn Miller
On tonight's win:
"We came out and wanted to play tough and play together. We wanted to play with a lot of effort and energy. Then we started getting stops and started scoring and we got into a rhythm offensively."
Senior Guard Omar Calhoun
On providing a spark off the bench:
"I wanted to get on the floor. I know I can do a lot on the court defensively and offensively, and I was able to read the defense and get a passing lane. I had to be a leader and communicate as a senior...I've been working hard."
