definitely equally forward future hard looking next start tough until wait
We definitely are looking forward to the future and next season. This has been hard on everybody. I think it is equally important that we wait until we get everyone back and start working out again. It has been a tough year, but it also has been very positive, too.

anyone good home returned seniors team tough washington year
When you play anyone on their home court, I think it's going to be a tough game. Washington is a real good team and they're going to play a lot of people. They returned everyone from a year ago and all their seniors are fifth-year seniors.
game knew possible potential talented unless
With Kelsey, every game is a possible game when she can have a career-high. We knew she was talented and had potential, but potential is nothing unless you put it all together.
