attention detail focus pay sure
I don't know what it is. I think we have to really focus a lot more and everyone has to pay attention to detail and really kind of buckle down and make sure we do everything.
days figure planning
Oh, I'm planning on it. I'm playing. I mean, I just figure I would. I really don't think it's that big a deal. I don't feel it when I'm walking. Some days are better than others.
beat biggest east game good lost mentally reason team tonight
I think that's what makes it so frustrating. You look at a game like tonight and you see how good we can look and then you say the only reason we lost tonight is because we beat ourselves. We let another team come back into it and we mentally kind of got shaken. I think that's something that's going to be the biggest thing going into the (Big East and NCAA) tournaments.
awesome barbara either finally hit knew leave momentum screens senior turner
I knew the momentum was either going to go their way or ours. Will Crockett and Barbara Turner set some awesome screens and I finally hit some shots. As a senior in this position, you want to leave everything out there.
feeling guess
I guess I never really look at it that way. I'm not, in a game, feeling like I should or shouldn't shoot. If I become open, I'm going to shoot.
anybody definitely good prove ready
I think we definitely have some things that we need to prove to ourselves, not to anybody else. That's obvious. Right now I feel like everyone's in a really good place and ready to go into postseason play.
coming game senior tired whatever
I don't ever really feel like I get tired when I'm on the court. I just want to play and do whatever I can. As a senior you look at every game and you could see kind of an end coming and you want to be in there as much as you can and make the most of it.
hoping maybe
I think we were still hoping for something to have happened, something to maybe give us another chance.
barbara chip coach continue crucial definitely either great happened momentum needed point seen side wide
I think it was just a crucial play that we needed at a big point in the game. Either they were going to get the momentum back on their side and continue to kind of chip away at us and you could've seen something that happened the other night. It definitely was a big play. Coach called it up and Barbara set a great screen. I was wide open.
boston knowing points
Knowing that we were two points from being in Boston (is tough).
asked believed carolina game hard nobody north worked
If you asked us after the North Carolina game (loss in December) if we would get to this point, nobody would have believed it. But we all worked so hard to get here.
develop few good last letting maturity minutes tonight win wire work
I think this is a good win for us, but there's always something you can take from it. Obviously, tonight being up 19 and then letting them kind of come back and then having it down to the wire the last few minutes is something that we need to work on. And we need to develop some maturity if we want to be as good as we can be in the (NCAA) tournament.
feelings frustrated hardest head needed personally replay represent slip
The most overwhelming feelings I have right now are being frustrated and angry. You replay things in your head that you let slip away and it makes you so mad. The hardest feeling for me personally is feeling that I didn't do what I needed to do to represent the program.
exactly goal mind somebody straight thinking thinks trying wants whatever
He's somebody who's going to tell you exactly what he thinks and when he thinks it with the goal in mind that he's trying to make you better. It's pretty much all straight forward, whatever he's thinking and whatever is on his mind. I think sometimes that there's probably things that he wants to say to us that he can't, too.
