knowing last mentality repeat understand
We have the mentality and we understand the expectations that have been set. Knowing you can do it and actually doing it are two different things, but for now, I know we can repeat from last year.
good highlight inside job
I thought that was a real highlight that we did a good job of establishing an inside game.
coming confidence saved
I think we had a lot of confidence coming out of halftime, that we had saved our best.
best coming confidence defense good halftime knew needed playing saved second
I think we had a lot of confidence coming out at halftime that we had saved our best for the second half. We were playing good defense and we knew what we needed to do.
hard last lose quantify season talent
Last season was our most experienced team. It's hard to quantify (how much talent was lost), but we did lose a lot.
combined easy fatigue hard losing positive responses work
We really wanted to make them work hard and I think they got tired. They were losing the game, and with the fatigue combined it's easy to not have positive responses sometimes.
great job key tonight
We thought the No. 1 key was controlling the boards. I thought we did a great job of accomplishing it, and tonight it was the difference.
few hesitant
We got hesitant down the stretch. We had a few too many turnovers and that's disappointing, but we're working on it.
basketball build definitely lead played scoreboard
We build a big lead and we let it go. We definitely played scoreboard basketball tonight.
decisions force gave great kick savvy terms
We were real savvy in terms of when we gave it to her and we didn't force it. I thought she made great decisions about when to take it up and when to kick it out.
action calling digging forcing plays run taking watching
We weren't digging in at all. We weren't taking anything away, we weren't forcing the action. We were calling out their plays and we were watching them run them.
again contend hard harder high ourselves position positive worked
We've worked so hard to put ourselves in this position that it's a positive thing that we have such high expectations to meet. We'll have to work a little harder this year, but we'll be in a position to contend again this season.
against defense establish great inside letting obviously pressure team win
To be able to win against a team as great as Stanford, just gutting it out with our defense is exciting. We weren't letting them establish an inside game, which obviously put a lot more pressure on Candice.
amazing bring brought won
We didn't bring any rebounding, but man, we brought a championship mentality. I think that's what we won with. We showed amazing guts.
