AMES, Iowa - California head coach Mike Montgomery

On the win
"All in all this was a good win here. It was a good college basketball crowd. It was really a lot of fun. We rebounded the ball well in traffic late and got the ball out of there. They got really agressive at the end of the first half and caused us some problems. It's got to be a confidence booster. These guys are pretty resilient. You're on the road, you're going to get a little tired. We got a good contribution off the bench from everyone."

On three-point play in final minute
"Jorge (Gutierrez) does probably a good of a job as any of our guards in finding people off the pick and roll. Bak made the layup and got a three-point play. That really was what was available."

On Harper Kamp
"I think if you don't make shots sometimes, it gets in your head defensively and he's one of our smarter defenders. He showed really well defensively. He made some big plays down the stretch and made some free throws. He has been finishing really well around the basket."
