It was huge for us. Our post players, any one has the ability to score down there.
coach director great hope keeps love mark morgan year
It's a mark of how great a coach she is that she keeps getting these offers. I hope (Athletic Director Morgan Burke) does everything he can to keep her. I'd love to play one more year for her.
love minutes playing somewhere
I love it. It's like 10 minutes from my home, so it's somewhere where I'm comfortable playing at and a lot us are comfortable playing at.
ahead game happens human time
It's only human to look ahead and think if this happens or if this happens. Realistically, you have to take it one game at a time because if you don't win, you don't go on.
came extremely good played poised rattle second sluggish start stayed
For 40 minutes, I think we played extremely good basketball. We came out a little sluggish to start the second half, but we stayed poised and didn't let it rattle us.

The bottom line, I think I needed to start being more aggressive earlier; I waited too long.
basketball good track
It's a good thing it's not a track meet. It's a basketball game.
beat bracket feeling looked penn remember team thinking
I looked at the bracket and I thought about it. I've been thinking about (2004, when she made the all-tournament team as a freshman) a lot lately. I remember the feeling of celebrating after we beat Penn State. Hopefully, that's one we can duplicate.
anybody quick seemed shot
It seemed like we were right back into it as quick as anybody could be. Unfortunately, they made one more shot than we did.
games huge matter
No matter what they do, they're huge for us. In so many games they've been so big for us, and it's something we're going to need down the stretch.
basketball game handle matter
Basketball is a game of runs. It's just all a matter of how you handle it.

Defensively we came out and we were aggressive. They just didn't knock down shots and credit our defense for that.
extremely good minutes played
For 40 minutes I thought we played extremely good basketball.
badly behind hard love played ready sidelines wants win
She always had them ready to play, and they played very, very hard for her. She's a competitor, and you've got to love having someone behind you, someone on the sidelines who wants to win just as badly as you do.
