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.
dean happy smith uphill winning
It's a big accomplishment, obviously. Winning 300 is really big, and we did it in a big way in the Dean E. Smith Dome. I'm very happy we got it, and we're pretty much uphill from here.
bothering win
It was bothering us. It (stinks) not to have a win in your conference.
bit conference goal greedy last lost mouth playoff program taste win
All year, our goal was to win the regular-season conference championship and the postseason championship. Our program went from 1-27 two years ago. Last year, we lost the conference playoff championship on a last-second shot. That taste has been in our mouth for 365 days. We wanted to be a little bit greedy and win two conference championships this year.
bit feeling today win
It (stinks) not to have a win in your conference. We got one today and we're feeling a little bit better.
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.

Our game plan was to come out and be aggressive. We were just in a rhythm and got it going.

I think more of us are interested in eating better.

Just knowing (Andrus) was able to run on her ankle is a confidence boost.

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.
