Tovarich: Pretty ho-hum performance. Outrebounded, allowed 60% shooting. All around just...meh.
Reporter: Does winning a trophy make it less ho-hum?
Tovarich: Not when you beat Northern Illinois, Pepperdine and Southern Illinois, the last unimpressively. This team is above that. With 7 seniors, next year's quite a rebuild. Maybe next year doing something like that would matter.
Reporter: Was it important to get Li going?
Tovarich: If he's off, we'll usually find someone else, unless we're the road team in a tournament semifinal, then no one's going to score apparently.
Reporter: Now the meat of the schedule with 5 of 6 power schools coming up. How do you think you stack up against them?
Tovarich: On paper, we're better than most of them, but we were Nebraska too, so that doesn't mean much. We have to learn how to get a damn rebound, or we may go about 1-5. Someone will probably score. We could do without allowing 60% shooting, or we'll have to force 16 turnovers every game and those big schools aren't going to do that like a freshman @ Southern Illinois.
