Jake on last night's game:

"Another week, another guy guarding me that can't hold my jock."

With last night's game wrapping up the regular season, the Tropics were able to clinch the 2nd seed with the victory. This awards us a first-round bye for the playoffs. #GoTrops🌴

"I just want to give a big shout-out to Andrew and Jay for stepping in on 10-day contracts. Andrew came straight from the driving range and Jay came straight from dinner. We would have had to forfeit without them..."

Logan on last night's win:

"Man, 6 players out, coming off a 3-week hiatus. It really shows our ability to adapt. We had to slow the pace to make sure we didn't gas out. I had to play out on the perimeter. I had 3 threes last night after going the entire season without one..."

“…It just shows the type of guys we have on this roster. You come back from 10 once and then go down 10 again quick, it’s easy for guys to get frustrated and check out mentally. We all kept our heads up and I think we all did a good job of focusing on the next play…”

Jake on last night’s 2OT win:
“It all started on the defensive side of the floor.. our shots weren’t falling all game but the only thing you can control is your defense and effort.. i feel like our defensive effort in the second half really sparked our offense for that comeback.”
