alison ball felt hands knew left opening players saw soon step
In my opinion, big-time players want the ball in big-time situations. I just saw an opening and I saw Alison Bales step up. She's very long and I knew if I got it over her, it felt pretty good. So as soon as it left my hands I knew it was going in.
hand knew left tall
She's tall and she's long and I thought if I got it over her it would feel pretty good. I knew when it left my hand it was going in.
overtime worry
Overtime is our time. I didn't worry about it.
campus comprehend constant god good hits national people student won
I keep having to tell myself, ?Oh my God, we won the national championship? every once in a while. Honestly, just being back on campus and getting the recognition from the student body, and the people around the community, that?s a constant reminder, but just to actually comprehend what we just did, it hits you every once in a while, and it?s just a really good feeling.
drink eat felt game knew legs step time
I couldn't eat or drink anything all day. I was pretty dehydrated, but I knew this was no time to be sick. My legs still felt pretty wobbly when the game started, but I knew I had to step up my game.
beginning grew played youth
In the beginning, I didn't know what to expect. I was kind of overwhelmed. I think youth played a part in that. But I grew up pretty quickly.
bed final four giving goal saying sick stand stayed
I stayed in bed all day, but giving up and saying I was sick wasn't an option. The goal was to get to the Final Four and nothing was going to stand in our way.
again hope
We're 1-1 with them now, and I hope to see them again very soon.
