few games goes good last played year
It's not only last year -- this goes back to a lot of good games we've had with the Bison the last few years. Obviously, we didn't feel like we played really well in Brookings last year.
awards balanced basketball conference creating mug players
I don't necessarily feel that we need to have it as a conference -- I don't need a conference mug or letterhead with a conference logo. It's getting a competitive schedule, a balanced schedule, and creating some awards and recognition that all players in independent basketball should get.

defense good job taking zone
I thought their defense was very disruptive. That zone does a good job of taking you out of what you're comfortable with.
backward bit feels felt good nice step three took wins
It feels good and bad. It's nice to get three wins in a row, but I also felt like in some of the areas, we took a little bit of a step backward tonight.
hopefully played reaches schedule team
Defensively I thought we played pretty well. We're going to need to play much better as the schedule reaches the mid-February point, and hopefully our team understands that.
beginning complete focus games intensity offense terms
I thought from beginning to end, that was a very complete game. We've had complete games in terms of our intensity and focus before, but we haven't necessarily done it on offense and defense.
good needed
She's a really good spot-up 3-point shooter. We needed all of them. We just didn't have much else going.
great season showcase
Something like making the NIT would have been a great way to showcase the season we had.
defense early hit kept playing three
Our defense was really good. Andrea hit a three to get us going early in the game, and from there we just kept playing pretty solid.
difficult gets good players plays puts team
When Lorenz plays well, their team is difficult to beat. They have very good players around Lorenz, but she's the one who gets them sparked. When she's on, it puts them at ease.
extra good needed order
We had very good leadership. We had the kind of intangibles that we needed to have in order to be good, which is the extra effort, and a lot of hustle.
division eighteen games kids played positive road year
When you look at going 19-9 on the season, and we played eighteen games on the road, and all of those road games were division one games, I think that's a real positive for the year the kids had.
knew pleased
We are inexperienced, and I think some of that has to do with being young. But I was pleased (Thursday) because I didn't sense that we were inexperienced. The only way you knew that was to look at the roster.
