efficient needed second team
We weren't where we needed to be defensively in the second half. They are the most efficient team I've seen.

Al McGuire's locker room was next to ours. Ray would be yelling, he'd pause for a second and then you'd hear Al yelling. Al would pause for a second, and you'd hear Ray yelling. It was great.

basketball enjoy focus game kids second top whether
We've been here (playing a top seed) before, but it was always in the first or second round. The kids have to be able to focus and still enjoy it. One-and-out basketball is still one-and-out basketball, whether it is the first game or the third.
favor game later press second tempo took turned unit
I really thought our second unit turned the game in our favor in the later part of the first half. We were able to press a little, turn the tempo up and that's how we took the lead.

answer ball bread early expect game gave kids missed realize smart time
When you have an All-American player, you go to her. We went to her early in this game and she didn't answer the bell. When you get her the ball on the block, you expect her to score. She missed some bunnies and that's why I gave her an early seat. When she went back in, our kids are smart enough to realize she's our bread and butter. This time she produced.
noticed
You know, I noticed that she went smaller, but I don't think it made a difference.
hang stuck
We were able to hang for a half, then got stuck on 33 for a long, long time. I thought we were never going to get off it.
consistent
We had some moments, but we didn't have enough consistent moments.
