Recap | Box Score | Notes

Duquesne head coach Danny Nee

"What it boiled down to for Duquesne was us shooting the ball better. I thought there were shots my players had that were makeable. Pitt's defense also forced us to take some quick shots.

Carl Krauser makes everyone on that team better players. He has tremendous heart. I wish he would have gone to the pros, he could help the Knicks. He looked awfully good tonight. I didn't see any dents in his fenders. He's the real deal."

Pitt head coach Jamie Dixon

"I think their team is getting better. When you use a player like Achara - and they've done a great job developing him - it makes it tough."
