 Stevenson claims the Buffalo Wild Wings Classic Championship 75-72 over FDU Florm Glenn Clark with Coach Gary Stewart. Coach perhaps fitting they're called the Devils they would not let you go at any point tonight they just kept hanging around and hanging around how proud are you of your team for the fact that every time they had an answer your team came up with one themselves. Well we knew it was gonna be a tug-of-war you know it's as I mentioned to you last night they were a difficult guard the 33 three point field go attempts tonight and how they kind of leave you on an island so it's almost like one-on-one because you can't help from the perimeter and if you don't get them under control on the dribble and they put the ball in the paint and now all of a sudden you're collapsing and then they're kicking out for threes and our guys kind of just hung in hung in hung in and finally we were able to put a couple stops together in the second half and and get some separation. The big thing obviously Mark Terrell finishes with 35 points we talked about Mark in the first two games but I think one of things I noticed tonight is even the attention that he gets and what that can do for everybody else because he's got good vision to get the ball back outside so even though he scored 35 I thought some of the other big plays were the ones where he got it inside the double team and was able to kick it back out. Yeah one of the best things about his game is his ability to pass I mean he's a highly skilled guy and if he was a different size with the same skill set he would he would be fine as a guard he can face the basket obviously can make shots he handles the ball he's a really good player. You win the tournament to put together two games like this this weekend after the tough start of the season how important is this for this team? I think it's critical you know we went into this weekend without Evan and and we're playing without Marcus and and and didn't have Mikey so those are three really really important pieces so it gives us confidence we've talked about the strength in numbers we can go deep into our bench and we've got some really really good players down there and and that showed this weekend. I saw you went to Bo Wesley in the first half tonight I know that he didn't get a lot of minutes but maybe a sign of you have even more options as the season goes along. We like Bo you know he's a guy that can defend on the interior he's an eight shot blocker really good defenders as defenses ahead of his offense and we we like that because we're trying to get a defensive mindset. You message to your team you get the week off before you get back to action next Saturday I'm assuming it's you know ease up on the carbs on Thursday something like that make sure that you're still ready to go to play basketball. We haven't got to Thursday yet yeah we're gonna get after Monday in the weight room and then practice and film and and we've got a lot to get better at and we've got a good good part of the year for us this whole week where we don't have a game it's a good time for us to improve on some of the things that obviously we saw this weekend that we would need to address. Coach happy Thanksgiving and congratulations on the win we'll see you next Saturday. Same to you and happy Thanksgiving everybody out there. Coach Gary Stewart I'm Glenn Clark for GoMustAngSports.com
