awesome honor role teams
Any accolade comes with your role on the team. When teams succeed, individuals succeed. It's a great, awesome honor but it's all about team here.
experience
It was a lot of fun. It was the experience of a lifetime.
attacking coming defense definitely focus focusing looking moving offense positive putting ten time together
Coming into this game, we really just wanted to focus on our defense, attacking on offense and putting together a 40-minute game. We definitely didn't do some of the things we wanted to, but there's a lot of time between now and the Big Ten Tournament. We're just looking at getting better, focusing on the positive and moving forward.
chemistry hearts time turn until
There's something about the chemistry on this team, that, when it's time to turn it on, we're going to turn it on. We're just going to play our hearts out until the buzzer sounds.
ball brought defense dictated letting players
It all started with our defense letting their go-to players get the ball and take wide-open shots. Purdue just really brought it tonight. They dictated (to) us.
awesome basketball energy extra harder leadership playing quiet steal whether
Kristin is an awesome person, more so than a basketball player. But her leadership was just phenomenal. She was so quiet but you just wanted to play harder just because of her actions. Whether it was getting that extra steal or playing blue-collar defense, you would just look to Kristin for energy and she would give that to you.
era excited few forward life looking loss months next
I'm just really excited. A loss for words, really. I'm looking forward to a new era in my life... I'm just really excited for the next few months and years.
goals help individual role success supposed team
I never really thought about it as being one of my goals. It's just something that comes with your role on the team and how you're supposed to help the team out. With team success comes individual accolades.
hoped maybe push
It's kind of a blur. I hoped we could maybe play it over. Maybe I could back into her, push her down -- I don't know -- do something different.
until
It's not over until it's over. We're fighters.
duke great hurts team
We didn't want to go out this way. It hurts a lot right now. Duke is just a great team and they had a great balance.
last lesson minute points score
What we were doing in the last minute we should have been doing for 40 minutes. To be able to score that many points in that little time, we should be able to take a lesson from that.
