events everybody happened looking pinpoint step taking
Everybody is taking a step back and looking at the events that happened during the year. I don't think you can pinpoint it on one thing. It was many different things that kind of happened at once.
display percent shoot
This was a very disappointing display of basketball. When you shoot 31 percent and have 20 turnovers, you're not going to win, especially in March.
loss practice weeks
We have two weeks of practice to get things done. Hopefully, this loss will make us better.
bench herself jamie sitting
We can't have Jamie sitting on the bench for very long. Jamie's got to find a way to keep herself on the floor.
defensive entire mental
We had a lot of mental lapses and defensive breakdowns the entire game. It's a win.
effort great played team tougher won
We had great effort and played with great passion, but it just wasn't enough tonight. The tougher team won tonight.
duration easier help
We have to have more help in that area. I'm not making excuses, but we need to make things a little easier for us for the duration of the game, not just the beginning.
consistent might players
We might have to shorten our bench. Some players have been more consistent lately.

answer both
We didn't have an answer for both of them.
games last week
We're approaching this week, these two games this week, as they are not any more important than the games last week or the games in the future.
basketball believe build confidence confident good kids places pull remind
We just have to pull some kids out of the places they're in. Some kids aren't as confident as they need to be. We have to build their confidence and remind them they're still a good basketball team. They've got to believe it and play like it.
effort energy hard people second work
We just wanted to show 12,000 people what we were all about. That's hard work and second effort and just a lot of energy out there.
adversity faced worse
We've faced worse adversity before. We'll get through this as well.
