defense except few mistakes played terrific
I thought we played terrific defense and well enough offensively. I think we can play a little better offensively but defensively, except for a few mistakes on the perimeter, we were solid.
four good guards point
I thought our point guards were practically perfect. That's as good a play as we've had from our point guards as we've had in four years here.
basketball defensive few focus half intensity lost second talented
I thought our defensive intensity was good. The second half we could have done a few things better, but we never lost focus on the defensive end. They?re a very experienced and talented basketball team.

I think we are capable of winning when she has to sit. You have a frame of reference for a season, and that frame of reference is we have won without Jessica Davenport, it means we can do it again.

Jess is always going to be back with that little time left.
good guarded spot
Jess was being guarded one-on-one, and that's a pretty good spot for us.

People who really follow women's basketball know there's two of them.

I think they probably were convinced they couldn't play any worse.

I think if you were going to be surprised at something, it was the amount of time she spent in a defensive stance. That's new.

Winning it is great. We shared it with a pretty good team last year (Michigan State) and we had to go 14-2 to do that. We beat some really good teams this year, including arguably four of the best down the stretch.
came course dominated eight last league open realize scheduling seven teams tradition
When I first came in the league, I thought it was a 'welcome-to-the-league scheduling format,' where you open with the two teams who have dominated the league through the course of the last seven or eight years. Now I realize it's a tradition you have to live with.
defensive opportunity second work
We got the opportunity to work on some things, to try different combinations of players, to work on some little defensive adjustments ? especially in the second half.
