QUEENS, N.Y. -
Head Coach Norm Roberts
On Seton Hall:
"We have to give them credit. They made big shots and played patient. We didn't make shots and it affected us on defense."
On the effort of his team:
"These guys try so hard and they are trying so hard to win. We want so bad to win. Tonight we got tight and we didn't make it happen."
On the St. John's offense:
"We got stagnant and we were holding the ball. We knew they were going to play a 2-3 defense and we practiced it. We just couldn't make it happen."
Junior Forward Justin Burrell
On the urgency of a victory against Seton Hall:
"We really needed this game. We didn't get it done."
Junior Guard D. J. Kennedy
On the team's play against Seton Hall:
"It was a must-win and we missed a lot of layups. We came out in the second half and we didn't have it. We just didn't play well."
Head Coach Bobby Gonzalez
Opening Statement:
"Our kids were tremendous. We played unbelievable defense. Fifty points was the lowest amount of points we gave up all year. Between man and zone defense, we defended well. We concentrated on D.J. Kennedy and a couple of other guys. We wanted to make it very difficult for them to score and we accomplished that. We had to step up and get great performances from other players. "
