POSTGAME QUOTES
New Mexico 80, TCU 70
Fort Worth, Texas (Daniel-Meyer Coliseum)
Feb. 26, 2011
Attendance: 6,032
TCU HEAD COACH Jim Christian
On tonight's game:
"Tonight's game was the best offensive game we have played in a while, but it came down to individual defense. I was really happy with 13 offensive rebounds, which is a huge emphasis for us because we have not been shooting the ball well. The last two games we have been able to score around the basket more due to these rebounds."
On TCU's play during the second half of the conference season:
"What I have taken away from this stretch of games is how we played these teams the second time around. We have played much better. The guys are starting to figure it out and playing much better. It was great to see Amric Fields bust out tonight and (Nikola) Cerina play more aggressively around the rim."
On his team's effort through its recent struggles:
"I cannot say enough about these guys. Through all of this they have played hard. They are playing hard and doing what they can do, and that is hard to say in this type of situation. We are just not making plays and giving up big baskets at key possessions."
