balanced great job scoring season sick stepping
She's been sick for a week, but to her credit, she's been able to play through it. We always want to be a balanced scoring team. Jenna and Allie (Quigley) have done a great job all season in stepping up when we need them.

She's making progress. It affects her conditioning. It's hard for her to be sharp. It affects her teammates because they're not making the same plays to the same person in practice.

I?m really kind of oblivious to it. I think the players are, too. I just think these kinds of streaks come and go, and this one has just kind of happened. I?m impressed by our players? mental ability to respect our opponents.

She had the gift of being able to talk to paupers and princes equally. If you asked me how old she was, I'd tell you 38-to-42. And I mean that as compliment to her maturity.

Because we played them last year, there is a lot of background. I haven't seen tape on them this year, but I trust Liberty is good because they beat us last year.

Liberty earned our respect last year on a bus ride home. That respect can't be lost because they graduated a few players.

My team impressed me again in their ability to comprehend and understand what I was going through.

Pitt is a good basketball team. They have talented players, who play at a high level, and are deserving of playing in the next tournament (the NCAA).
basketball coach game great involved life opportunity pay people respects taught
Something that coach taught us, basketball is important but basketball life and people involved with the sport are more important than the game. And no game can keep you from doing and having the opportunity to pay your respects to someone as great as coach Ray.
basketball easy game
Basketball is a game of easy baskets ... and we had no place to go for easy baskets.

You know, I noticed that she went smaller, but I don't think it made a difference.
