It wasn't just one person, it was everybody. Turning the ball over 31 times - I don't think I've ever seen that from this team. So I'm a little disappointed with that. |
It's always difficult to beat a team three times. It's extremely difficult to beat a great team three times. |
It's because high school kids are getting better and better. The quality and quantity is getting better. Players are going to different schools now, not just the top two or three teams. They're willing to go build a program instead of sitting on the bench at a well-known school. |
It's killing me right now. Not for myself, but for my players. |
It's like playing in the NCAA Tournament. It forces your players to adapt to the time, the distance, the arena and the crowd. It's a great experience. |
It's not awkward to me at all. Kids transfer all the time. I know she stays in touch with some of the players. We've always just wished her the very best. |
It's one of the best books I've ever read. |
It's really a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and I'm having two opportunities. I just feel so lucky to be given this opportunity again. |
It's something that we certainly have been focusing on. What we've done in practice is showing up in the games. We've done a pretty good job. |
It's the little things (that will decide the game). When you get to this stage, every team is a great team. You're not going to make changes at this point in time, so you have to do the little things very, very well. It's the box-outs, the screens. It's the attack mindset on both ends of the floor. It's the little things that make the big difference. |
It's their athleticism. They do a great job with their traps, and you don't see it every day, so it's hard to prepare for. They're the most athletic team in the country, and it's difficult to prepare for that. |
Marissa's game has grown so much. |
Mo has always been the tough one on the team and she leads by example with her toughness, but this year she's become a much better communicator with her teammates because she knows we're young and she needs to be very positive with them as well. All of the players have remarked that she's become a great leader for us. She really wanted to become a great leader and now she has the freedom to lead a little bit more than she felt she had in the past. |
Monique showed why she's the best player in the ACC and one of the best players in the nation. |
