Duquesne head coach Danny Nee:

"We were climbing back in it when Higgins' ball rimmed out. Then they hit the three and some free throws and before you knew it it was a 10-point game. If Jack hits that shot, maybe they tighten up a little bit. I thought we banged with them pretty good, but they were able to draw fouls and we weren't. We just have to get to the free throw line. They shot 36 and we shot 15.

"This was the best team we've played so far, it was also our best effort. Now we have to get some people to play better and with more consistency. There were some things I liked. Aaron Jackson came in and gave us some quality minutes and DeVario Hudson played better tonight."
