fortunate four helping learn love maybe particular rest retirement special spend team time
I would love to have Alana for the rest of my life. I think I was just very fortunate to have her for four years. When you have someone that special to get to spend four years with, while helping them learn and grow, it is special. It was her time to go and it's someone else's time to shine. I don't think it's one person in particular but maybe just this team in general.
knew married people privilege ready reasons time
I don't think being married has made her more mature. I think because she was (already) so mature, it was one of the reasons she knew she was ready to be married. She's always been from the time we recruited her one of the most mature, responsible people that I've ever had the privilege to be around.
final focus four headline paper regional task time tough trip winning
This is a time for celebration for our team. But there are a lot of tough things going on campus. We don't know much about it. We've been out of town. But when you come back from winning your regional and getting a trip to the Final Four and the headline in the paper is about (the lacrosse team), it's kind of tough. But we just have to focus on our task at hand.

Every time their games went into overtime, they won. I've seen many instances where the pressure is really on, and they come through.
afterwards almost bad easy game team
I told the team afterwards that it's not a bad thing to have a game like this. It's been almost too easy for us up to this point. Everything was flowing; everything was in sync. This game things did not go well for us, but we did what was necessary.
impressed keeps somebody tough
I'm really impressed with Jefferson. She just keeps getting better and better. She's somebody who can get her own shots. She's strong, she's physical, she's athletic. She's just a tough kid.
blown good team
I think it was good for us mentally. We haven't blown a team out in a while, and I think it was good for our confidence.
blown confidence fleeting game good mentally physically rust team
I think it was good for us mentally. We haven't blown a team out in a while. ... Confidence is sometimes such a fleeting thing. Honestly, this game was probably better for us mentally than physically other than to get the rust off.
carolina fortunate home job last site year
I think we all need to do a better job of bidding to have sites. Carolina was fortunate to have a home site last year, as was Maryland. I think every year, year in and year out, we need to be bidding.
beautiful history ugly win
I think this is the most beautiful ugly win we've had in the history of our program.

The chemistry was incredible. It was a great learning experience for me and my staff. (The team) was eager to please, they worked hard. There were no egos.

It's really a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and I'm having two opportunities. I just feel so lucky to be given this opportunity again.

I thoroughly enjoy watching them play. We have a tough test on our hands, one I'm looking forward to playing.
