BAYLOR

Baylor Head Coach Scott Drew:
"Very pleased with the win. Coach's tell players and fans all the time about good opponents but these guys were good. This team took Duke to the limit two years ago and they return 8 seniors this year."

"To beat them in a game where we could not get up and go was very good for us."

"Wins like this are essential, especially for the end of the season and the postseason."

Baylor Guard Curtis Jerrells:
On Jahsa Bluntt: "He's a great shooter. We knew that coming in and were guarding him pretty well, but he's a terrific shooter."

On playing at a slow tempo:
"It was very hard. Coach told us about it and he tried to prepare us, but it was extremely slow. We're used to playing at a fast pace."

Baylor Guard Aaron Bruce:
On Delaware State:
"They are very methodical about the way they go about the game. They are a well coached, very disciplined team. They like to shorten the game by hanging onto the ball a long time and decreasing the number of possessions in the game: hence, the low scoring tonight compared to other nights for us. It's just a credit to our coaching staff for coming out with a great game plan to attack the basket. The stuff we've done in the past few weeks with rebounds and working on the little things has really come to fruition down the stretch."

DELAWARE STATE

Delaware State Head Coach Greg Jackson:
"Kids played extremely well. The game plan was executed well for first 20 minutes and most of the second half. It is a tribute to our team when they play a team like this."

"We got the look we wanted the shot just didn't fall."

"We don't want to just compete, we want to be able to play on the National level."

Jahsha Blunt:
"The play was designed to find the open man and I got the open look but missed the shot."

"They took away the inside so we were patient and as they found me, my shots began to fall."
