against focus inside job next
It makes my job that much easier. That's just how it is. Next game, against Virginia, you'll see it. They'll focus on the inside and we'll get it going on the outside.
against contend half league match teams top
I think we should be in the upper half and contend with the top teams. I think we match up a lot better against teams in the league this year.
above against fired game gave goal kept played points score second state team
In the first game against Holton, we played with them, but we didn't play as well as we could have. In the second game, we were down by 10, and I gave them the goal to score 20 points before Holton scored 25 and we got to 23-21. It kept us fired up, because it showed us what we could do when we played the No. 1 team in the state in the classification above us.
again few nicely noticed recovered running slow time walked
I noticed Brooke slow down and she actually walked a few steps. I raced over to see if she was okay, but she was running again by the time I got there. Brooke recovered nicely and was never pushed.
bit fairly gave good great knock player shot
I think we did a fairly good job. Obviously, we just gave him a little bit of space. When you give a great player like that a little bit of space, he can knock the shot down.
easy finding hot jeff nice stop teammates tried
Jeff was really hot early. And that's the nice thing about having so many options, they tried to stop him and my teammates started finding me. I got a lot of easy baskets.
bit goal national win
Our goal from Day 1 was to get back to the national tournament. But there are two championships to win in our conference. We're a little bit greedy. We want to win them both.
game plan rhythm
Our game plan was to come out and be aggressive. We were just in a rhythm and got it going.
eating interested
I think more of us are interested in eating better.
ankle confidence knowing run
Just knowing (Andrus) was able to run on her ankle is a confidence boost.
although best chances compete create five good miss second
We just did not compete and were second best in most things, although we did create five good chances only to miss them all.
beginning force people showing slump tournament uphill
This year, we had our slump in the beginning, and it's better to have in the beginning than at the end. I think we've been going uphill since, and we've been showing people that we can be a force come tournament time.
diego good san tan weather
Weather is not everything. But it'd be good to go to San Diego and get a little tan or something.
led plays
We led most of the game. We just didn't make enough plays to win.
