HEAD COACH Dale Layer
"We had a lot of good players in street clothes.
"We had a lot of bright spots. Cory Lewis, when you compare him tonight with where he was a year ago, it's night and day.
"Stu was terrific in stretches.
"Jarrel Smith had some real bright spots.
"Alton Robinson gave us energy on the glass and on the press.
"We've got some pieces. We had way too many guys play too many minutes due to the injuries.
"You always like playing someone else.
"This isn't how we practiced the entire preseason.
"We're rought but we had some energy.
Cory Lewis, CSU GUARD
On the slow start: "Its totally different (from last year), I have to build chemistry with the guards, but these guys are even better than last year...There are a lot of new faces still getting used to the new system."
"Jason (Smith) and Tyler (Smith) are going to be a big part our offense (which did not play tonight). We had to step up and get it done"
On creating own shot: "The coaches just told me, when you see a gap to penetrate it and that's what I did."
Stephan Gilling, CSU GUARD
"It felt pretty good out there, especially since it was our first game."
On shooting performance: "I came out and missed two shots and I was pretty upset about that, but in the second half I started hitting my shots, that's why I'm out there."
