I think we've got to win this tournament just to go to the NIT.
conference qualify
As a competitor, you don't want to qualify for your conference tournament, because, not only did you lose, but someone else also lost, which is why you got in. You really want to get in by winning.

balls bit face games great hit league overlooked played playing thinking win won
Some balls bounced our way. Let's face it, Rutgers is a great team. They won 16 league games in a row. If we played them 10 times, they would win nine. I think they overlooked us a little bit thinking about playing Connecticut in the final. But Rutgers won't be in the final. I don't know if this all has hit me yet.

among athletes award beyond continue dad extend female gratitude great greatest honor humbled impact mom named ncaa recognized state thanks truly university woman year
It is a great honor to be named the 2005 NCAA Woman of the Year from our great state, ... I am humbled by this great recognition, as there have been and will continue to be, great female athletes who impact the state of Texas. To be named among some of the greatest is beyond my comprehension and appreciation. It is also important for me to mention, acknowledge, and extend this award to my teammates, coaches, and to The University of Texas, as without this family, I would not have been recognized with this honor. Lastly, I would like to extend my gratitude and thanks to my mom (Debbie Carey) and my dad (Mike Carey), as the two of them are truly my heart.

We make our own monsters, then fear them for what they show us about ourselves.
ashley ball freshman guard lack quick replace threw tried
We tried to get a quick score. Ashley Powell thought she could take it all the way and she got a charge. Then we put the other freshman guard in (to replace Owens) and she threw the ball away. It was not from lack of effort, it was just lack of experience.
players
We're just not comfortable with our go-to players in the stretch.
