WAKE FOREST VS. MARYLAND
February 24, 2002
Maryland Head Coach Chris Weller
"Wake Forest beat us in one of the most physical games I've seen in years. I'm surprised at how physical the game was allowed to be."
"At this point it doesn't matter who we play [in the ACC Tournament]. I'd just like us to be playing better basketball."
Wake Forest Head Coach Charlene Curtis
"I think we're finally learning to win games. We knew if we won we'd get that 7 or 8 spot. We've never been in this position before. Usually we're fighting to stay in games and we go to the tournament and no one expects us to do anything. We're not a great shooting team and we don't score a lot of points, but if we can continue to play defense and rebound like we did today, we have a chance to beat a lot of people."
"We compare playing them to a boxing match. The first time we played them, we thought we had them knocked out in the first. Emotionally, we were shocked when they came out for the next round and knocked us out. Today, when they went on that run at then end of the first half, we felt like we were against the ropes, but we came out and played hard from the first bell to the final bell."
"Our man-to-man was good early, and then there was a timeout where they talked about how to beat our man-to-man and we came out in a 2-3 zone. We like to keep teams off balance."
