Stokes Postgame Press Conference (Audio Quotes)

ECU Coach Ricky Stokes
"We had a tough night tonight. I just think our effort was not where it needed to be to play a team like Southern Miss. They beat us in all facets of the game. We weren't defensively strong enough."

"I think sometimes you need a day away, and maybe our team needs that day. Sometimes freshman hit a wall, and I don't know if that was it, but we have to be able to play longer, harder and faster."

"In a perfect world, the freshman would be coming along nicely. Most of these guys have played more minutes than they did in their high school career."

"We have to play better with what we have. We have to play better and we need to find a way to win. It all starts with playing harder."

"This is the first time we ever came out without the effort to win."
