“We have a good chance of going to the Final Four, I think. Knock on wood.”

“I don’t think they’re going to win … I don’t think they have enough athleticism.”

“I’m pretty confident we’re going to make it at least to the Final Four … but after that I don’t know.”
Kush Patel
James Madison freshman

“I’d say (we will get) second or third. I’m hoping for first, of course, but I’m just being realistic.”
Spencer Westhuis

“(We’ll go) all the way … I think we have a good team, and they’ve been working well together.”
