Post game comments by Roanoke Rapids head coach Tyler Snyder, "We played well defensively again and I'm proud of how much pride we have in our defense. We made some mistakes that could have helped us get a better handle of the game. They played well and made most of their shots in the fourth quarter which allowed them to get back in the game. Free throws down the stretch helped keep us in front."
