Indiana head coach Steve Aird
"The other team was better than we were. At the end of the day you can come up with a list of excuses why that might be the case. We can acknowledge the fact that we start three freshmen and they are young. We have some kids that need to get a lot better. I thought the other team had a good game plan and we were outcoached and outplayed and sometimes that happens. You tip your cap and move on to the next game."

The Hoosiers are back in action tomorrow for a 5:00 p.m. match against Temple.
