On explosive passing plays
“I gave up an explosive passing play, on a mall call I was playing outside leverage too much and he ran a dig away from our leverage and I have to be better in that scenario. I think that the other explosive one on the cover two was also my fault.”  

On to losing to a rival
“It’s tough, it’s definitely tough, being that it's senior night, but what I will say is that the team did come to play today. I think everyone played well. I feel like the majority of this is my fault. I had a lot of opportunities to make plays, a lot of opportunities to change the game and impact the team in a positive way and I didn’t make those plays. This was definitely my worst game that I have played this year. It's an unfortunate feeling but at the end of the day I can’t pity myself or anything. I have to take accountability for my play. I have to be better and I apologize to my teammates. 

On losing Dylan Raiola 
“I definitely think it was an unfortunate moment for us and for him, but you have to push forward. While we want Dylan (Raiola) to be able to play, if he can’t he can't. The next man up mentality is what you have to have. TJ (Lateef) has come out and he’s done a great job. So I don’t think these losses or anything fall on his shoulders or fall on stuff like that. I think it more so falls on me and what I have done. I really do apologize to my teammates, to my coaches, the fans. I had a lot of opportunities to put us in a position to win and I hurt us in those situations. Part of being a leader, part of being somebody that says their a leader is accountability and that’s what I have to do in this moment. I do take that one because a lot of those plays have to do with me.”
