QUOTE OF THE GAME
"Frustrating to go into halftime with the lead and then within the first five minutes of the half drop it. After that we did play with some energy and enthusiasm and as has been our MO for most of these games, we create a lot of opportunities that we don't finish. Even in the second overtime I thought Camille had the winner, but too many of those passed us by and it's not good enough to beat a team as good as Siena." – Head coach Gene Smith.
