confidence games goes opportunity ourselves played psyche quickly ready rebound road talk team time
Our psyche has always been up and down. We've got to get our confidence back up. We'll have to quickly rebound and get ready to play. With the travel, we'll have time to talk about it. If we get there on the time and everything goes smooth, we'll be all right. We'll have the opportunity to get ourselves ready to play. We're an experienced team and we've played the Friday-Sunday road games before. We know how to do it. We just have to get ready.

We played our best basketball of the season in the first half. We were very aggressive and shot the ball very well.
credit games gas giving goes night nine percent played product pull shot
All the credit goes to Tulsa. They played exceptionally well. The shot 55 percent and got better as the night went on and we shot 30 percent and got worse. It's a product of the times we're in (five games in nine days). You have to fight. We were giving it everything we had, but we weren't able to pull enough gas out of the tank.
bench confidence enthusiasm folks fought good great grueling hopefully household nice percentage played ranked texas
I think it's always great to win, especially when you're confidence is in the balance. We've played a tough, grueling schedule. Texas A&M Corpus Christi was ranked 53 in the RPI (ratings percentage index). They may not be a household name, but they're a good team. We've played some good folks and hopefully we'll benefit. We just had more enthusiasm tonight, and we really fought hard. And it's nice when the bench comes in and produces.
came free hit line percentage played shot stood throw
We played real well to start. We came out and stood toe-to-toe with them and slugged it out. They hit some threes and shot a blistering percentage early. We had some inopportune turnovers and put them on the free throw line too many times.

Our players are very excited to play on TV so all their families can watch. We're down to late February and every game is of the utmost importance. It's nice to be home, and we have a lot of positive things in our favor. We're looking forward to a big crowd.

We did the things we needed to win. We just didn't do enough of them.
almost bench came carried four hit michele points rebounds saved shooting tonight
We didn't play very well tonight to tell you the truth. If our bench didn't come to the rescue, we would have been in trouble. Michele Hagan had a big night with 13 points and 13 rebounds in 13 minutes. That's almost a triple-double. And Jill saved us in the first half. We weren't shooting very well, and she came in and hit some threes and got four rebounds. The bench carried us tonight.
leadership push ups
When we get on a roll, we've got enough leadership to push them through the ups and downs.

I don't think we were standing at the table rolling sevens. We had to fight for every basket. There were charges. It was just wild and we weren't getting breaks.

We've done pretty well. It just comes down to whether we put an exclamation point on the season or a period.
