IUPUI Head Coach Ron Hunter

On his team’s overall effort:

“We outplayed them for 36 minutes of the game tonight.  We wanted to come in here and play smart.  We thought we could control the tempo of the game and I think our kids did a great job.  They have SEC size but we played hard and gave them a good run.    I have to give them credit, but we made plays tonight and I thought our kids responded well.” 

On the IUPUI defensive effort:

“I thought we were really good defensively tonight.  We had a good game plan going in.  We put in some wrinkles and I don’t think there is a team in our conference that can beat us when we play like we did tonight.  We treated this as a conference tournament game and the guys responded.  Their size wore us down, but we battled an SEC team that’s picked third in their conference and gave them a good run.  I am really proud of my guys.”
