00:00Congratulations to the Atlanson Soaring Falcons for winning over the U.S.T. Drowning Tigers, 60-96.
00:07The Soaring Falcons are now at 2-1.
00:11We have Coach Olsen.
00:14Not Olsen, I'm sorry. My apologies.
00:18Matthew Otecon, Royce Mantua, and Anthony Flansan.
00:26Coach, congratulations for this victory.
00:29It is a huge check you have to go through against U.S.T.
00:35Your thoughts about your game this afternoon?
00:38I'm happy with the effort that the players gave today.
00:44I just look at the stats.
00:46We outperformed a big team like U.S.T.
00:50So it just means that they put in the effort today.
00:55The last couple of days we were struggling with our focus.
01:00So I didn't really know how they would play today.
01:06But they made their adjustments and played a lot better today.
01:14And they favored us.
01:17Thank you, Coach.
01:18Thank you, Coach Nash.
01:19To Matt, you had 15 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals, and plus-7 too.
01:24So what can you say?
01:26You were able to bounce back from a 30-point loss against LaSalle.
01:30And then you were trailing in the first half.
01:32So what did you guys do to recover?
01:35Like Coach Nash said, our focus was pretty bad in preparation for LaSalle.
01:43So I think we took that as a learning opportunity.
01:47And then the next couple of days of practice, I mean we were super focused.
01:51But I think we were a little more focused and we came out with energy.
01:54And yeah, that was the outcome.
01:57Thank you, Matt.
01:59To Anthony, you had 11 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals, and plus-16.
02:05So what can you say after three games?
02:07What can you say about playing with Coach Nash?
02:11So, after those three games, I think my first game, I was a little nervous.
02:20Because it was my first time in the Big Arena.
02:23And actually, I'm just sticking with Coach Nash's system.
02:27The coaches are letting me do what I want to do.
02:30So I'm trying to break Coach Nash's standard.
02:33So they can keep their standard.
02:35And I can do what I need to do.
02:39Thank you to Royce. He had 11 points, 2 rebounds.
02:43So, what can you say about Coach Nash's system?
02:53Sorry.
02:54Coach Nash's system.
02:59Yeah, it's very, very good.
03:05With everyone, the ball movement.
03:08Knowing what to do with the ball.
03:10Knowing when to move without the ball.
03:13It also gives us opportunities.
03:17It fits well with everyone.
