league plays situation team wins
Every situation is new, and we're going to have to be able to come out with energy. The team that wins this league is going to be the one that comes out and plays every night.
defensive good intensity major time win zones
Any time you come to this place and win it's a major thing. It's a 10-hour trip, you (move through) time zones to get here. So to be able to play with the defensive intensity we did was good for our kids.
continue kids league learned reserve road time win work
Any time you go on the road in the league and win it's good. We accomplished a lot, and our reserve kids learned that they need to continue to work to get where we need them to be.

eight held liked
We would liked to have held them to eight or nine.
ball carrie floor guard hard jamie open three worked
We worked the ball because they were clogging up the middle. We got a lot of open looks. With Lauren, Carrie and Jamie on the floor it's hard to guard all three 3-point shooters. We got open 3s and made enough of them.
eye frame kids positive
We just have to have a positive frame of mind, which I think our kids have, we have to confidence, which I think our kids will have, and we've got to have the eye of the tiger.

We've got to play better. We've got to engage our minds and play more with our minds and our spirits.

I felt like we got great play out of our entire team.
