Mark Schmidt Played Quotations

I thought he was the difference in the game. He got rebounds. He defended. He gave us energy. He only played 13 minutes, but they were 13 big minutes. He did a terrific job.

I think we got the line a lot more than we have been. We played more aggressively.

Winning these past two games at home have given us so much confidence. We have really played well, and that will help us as we play three of our last four games on the road.

This young team is playing with a chip on their shoulders because they were picked to finish 10th in the league. But they played with confidence against a hot Wagner team.

I knew it was going to be a close game because you have two good undersized teams who try to out-scrap each other. We didn't always play well but we played hard and we made plays when we had to.

Derek played his best game since he's been here. He shot the ball with great confidence. He just was terrific. When he plays like that, we're a good team.

Their defensive intensity was there and forced us out of our offense. We played on our heels and weren't strong with the ball.

He played really well. He's going to be a terrific player. I'm glad he's on our team. It was a big game and he's a big-time player. When he brings that effort every night and he brings it on a consistent basis, he can be a special player.
