Quotables from coach Kelly Carter
"We had a year with some ups and downs. We made progress towards many of our goals but fell short on some of them. Our youngsters gained tremendous experience at this championship conference level, and that will help us as we continue to work to get better. I'm proud of how we gave our all both this weekend and this season and look forward to the years to come."
