Said

• “We were just undisciplined. If there’s one guy not defending, then you sit him on the bench. When there’s two, same thing. When it’s a team that’s doing it, then that’s on me.” – UW Coach Lorenzo Romar on his team’s lack of defense.
• “We’re disappointed in ourselves. We’re not playing as we should be playing. We know how to play and we’re just not doing it. We need to turn that around, right now.” – Scott Suggs after the loss.
• “You can negate any of this, if you guard. That will get you through the storm if you play defense. That’s something we pride ourselves in doing.” – UW Coach Lorenzo Romar after his team’s 68-56 upset loss to Oregon State.
