Loyola vs. St. Ambrose
November 28, 2009
Loyola Head Coach Jim Whitesell
On his team's play
"I thought a good finish to the first half and a good start to the second half helped us. I thought we had some sporadic moments there, but as the game went on we played a little better."
On the team's ball movement throughout the game
"I was happy that we only had seven turnovers and that we had 12 assists. What it is with our group is that someone else can score every night and you don't have to rely on one guy. We struggled a little bit with moving the ball in the first half, but I thought we moved the ball better in the second half. So a positive there is the ball movement and making the extra pass."
On capitalizing on home games
"I think the big thing for us is that we needed a home game. We've been on the road every Friday for the last two weeks. Having one at home was good because the guys had an opportunity to go home for Thanksgiving. I think they needed a little bit of a physical break after traveling to Kansas State and Holy Cross. You need stretches where you have some home games."
