COACH CARTER COLLINS'S COMMENTS
- I'm definitely proud of the guys on this one. Carthage is a very talented team, and they got us at their place last year.
- I thought we played really well during the first half and hit basically everything that we outlined we wanted to do.
- The second half was more up and down, but I was proud of the guys overcoming an uncharacteristic 0/13 3-point shooting half to play Carthage close to even and pull out the victory.
