Xavier Players
B.J. Raymond
On his 10-rebound performance “We don’t like to leak out as guards here at Xavier. We want to help out the big men. We want to make sure we punish them on the glass.”
“I took my time on all my threes today. My mechanics were working well.”
Kenny Frease
“In practice I’m starting to feel more comfortable in the post. I’m more comfortable with my moves. I don’t think it’s any one thing that I’ve changed. I think it’s just sticking with the process.”
“Coming in and shooting 200 free throws a day has really helped me out.”
Charlotte Head Coach Bobby Lutz
“Xavier was very dominant tonight. Their defense was excellent in the first half. Right now they’re clearly the best team in the conference and they deserve their ranking, top 10, top 12, whatever it might be.”
Xavier Head Coach Sean Miller
“I thought the storyline for the game tonight was the play of B.J. Raymond. He did it all. It’s hard to get 20 [23] points and 10 rebounds in the college game. He was clearly the best player in the game.”
On Kenny Frease
“Charlotte is physical and tough upfront. It was a good test for Kenny. Getting 19 points and six rebounds from our ‘five’ spot [Frease and Jason Love], that’s getting to be a consistent theme.”
“We made it hard for them to score at times. That’s what we have to be in the future. We’ve always been a team that’s been very focused. It’s been documented that both teams we lost to [Duke and Butler] are really good teams.”
“I really applaud Derrick [Brown] on a night when he didn’t score so much he really helped his team [with 11 rebounds].”
