Central is a good team. We beat them pretty easily in Seattle, but they've improved and they'll have their big post back. It really is going to be a tough game. |
Fairbanks and Anchorage are both good teams. Anchorage has an awesome post and Fairbanks is really balanced so we're going to have to come to play. Every game is big and when you're leading the conference the other team can play with nothing to lose. |
Hosting is something we set as one of our goals. Now we just need to stay focused on what we need to do the rest of the way. |
I am thrilled to have Jen back in our program. She has done an amazing job at Cal State San Bernardino and I'm excited about the input she will have in all facets of the program. |
I don't think there has been that much of a learning curve for her. Some of our play calls have changed, but it's been an easy adjustment. |
I guess I better let her step out a little more. That's bad coaching, not putting her in the right place. |
I'm sure she's not used to coming off the bench and for anybody that's an adjustment. The expectations are different and it can be a process, but she's been doing well. |
It's a little disappointing, but it's early and there is a lot of the season left. Cal State Bakersfield beat us, so they deserve to be ranked higher, but like I said, there is a lot of basketball to be played. |
It's a really disappointing situation. We'll need to work through this. Stephanie is such a wonderful person. She's our big defender, and she just gives us so much. |
It's always a hard fought game when we play SPU. It probably wasn't until about four minutes to play when we were up by 20 that I started thinking maybe this one is ours, but you never know with a team like SPU. This was a tough one. |
Our defense was a lot better. I feel like we were a little bit more pro-active on defense and did a better job communicating what was going on. |
Our game plan is always to push on offense, and we certainly will against SPU as much as we can, but they have some good speed. We're going to have to stop their transition too. |
Sara has been such an integral part of this program. We're going to miss her terribly. But we also support her in this decision and wish her only the best. |
She had to get back to the softball team. She had that commitment and needed to get ready for the season. She was a big help to us while she was here. |
She was used to scoring at her junior college. It always takes time to fit into a program. She probably did it a lot faster than most people. |
