avoid dig eight game hole nine
We didn't want to dig our hole any deeper. We don't want to be eight or nine and have to play in the play-in game for the tournament. The only way we're going to avoid that is to get some wins.

They were a completely different team than when they came to see us. It's hard to adjust because we played them in the second conference game and then in the last. We couldn't get any continuity with how much better they were.

The kids did a great job. Two conference road wins, I couldn't be more proud of how they played the last two games.

Amy didn't shoot the ball well, but she does other things.
defense finished finishing four good key last played year
The last four minutes, we buckled down and played really good (man-to-man) defense, and we got some key buckets. A year ago we probably wouldn't have finished this game. Now we're finishing games.
