It was great to see her finish that way. She had struggled emotionally all year. She laid it out on the line tonight. She fought as hard as she could. |
It was very important to finish like this. We game everything we had. |
That was just to get our intensity back, and not settle for low-percentage shots. Because of those strict rules, it forced them to start looking for each other again. |
We didn't want to end our season that way. You fight like that and come back. We did the only thing we could control out there, our work ethic. |
We really lost it in the second half, defensively. We lost our intensity. We gave them some wide-open shot. On top of that we were not blocking out, allowing them to get second shots. That really hurt our momentum and our spirits. |
You can hold your head up high when you leave the gym. You can say you did everything you could. It might have been a little too late. |
