"We have to be focused in on stopping their go-to's, at least limiting them… [Jess] Genco's is a great point guard, a prolific scorer throughout the season, they have shooters on the outside, good inside play, a really balanced and veteran team… We have to play very smart, be very task-oriented on the defensive end as far as getting assignments done… Making plays, in the last few games we've made some really good plays but we haven't finished and I think that's where a lot of our confidence will come from… We do some really good things with the ball when we have it, we just have to capitalize on that."
