ball care finish hang percent shoot shot
We're going to have to take care of the ball and finish on our shot opportunities. We're not going to get 30 or 40 shot opportunities. We have to shoot well over 50 or 60 percent to hang in there with them.
attack continue defensive great improvement improving momentum opportunity room work
We've been improving on a lot of things, but there is still a lot of room for more improvement. This will give us a great opportunity to work on our attack and some of our defensive weaknesses. It's also a momentum builder. We have to continue to play well.
arguably best class coming hopefully last looks loss motivating recruiting team year
They have arguably the best recruiting class in the country. They're going to be a completely new team with different looks and different strengths. Hopefully coming off of that loss to them last year is motivating our team. There's no way we can take this team for granted.
anchor games loss playing stepping three won
She's really the anchor of our defense. She's stepping up and playing consistently. We wouldn't have won our three games if it wasn't for her and Friday's loss would have been uglier.
conference parity step taken tougher tournament
In our conference, no one has taken a step back. There's going to be a lot more parity and I think our conference tournament is going to be tougher than it has ever been.
hooking rattled
We had to be disciplined, and we weren't that disciplined in the first half. We got kind of rattled and we just started hooking the ball.
ball care cause foolish great midfield
We made a lot of foolish turnovers in the first half. They're a great team, they're going to cause turnovers, but we've got to take care of the ball in midfield transition.
anywhere asked field hard played player roles type
We've asked her to do things that she didn't anticipate. She has played all these roles because of all the injuries. But she's the type of player that can play anywhere on the field and that's pretty hard to find.
felt game gives hand lead seems settled team
We felt like we had the game in hand and we settled down a bit. It always seems with Colgate that we get to a big lead and then we let them back in. That team never gives up.
double felt hit loss marks needed point though time turn
We would be reeling if we had loss today. We needed this win. It marks an important turn around point in the season. It really felt like the first time we hit double digits on the board, even though it wasn't.
