Not hitting shots in the first half hurt us. It's hard to fight from that far back. |
Obviously they made some mistakes down the stretch. They learn from little things like that, and hopefully it will make tem a little tougher and really want to come back strong when we play at Colfax. We still have a long way to go. |
She made some big plays. For a little sophomore to handle the pressure like she did was great. She brings a lot of quickness and a spark to us. I'm really impressed with how well she played tonight. |
The big difference was when Juric got into foul trouble. She wasn't able to defend in the second half with four fouls. (Becca) Pugh was able to score on her inside on shots that usually she would block. Colfax got some nice looks off that. That really hurt us. |
The seed was about what we expected. We don't think we got necessarily the easiest draw, but we figure we'll have to beat every at one point eventually if we want to win the section. |
They were a really talented team. They're probably the best team we've played this year. |
We came out without a lot of energy and it was fairly close to halftime. But we were able to pull away in the fourth quarter. |
We did a good job of taking care of the ball in the fourth quarter and moving it around to run out the clock. |
We made a commitment to play well defensively. |
We played real well defensively in the first quarter and then we turned it up offensively in the second quarter. By halftime, we pretty much had it under control. |
We shot well early, but never could pull away. |
We talk all the time. I like to ask him for advice because he's been in these situations before. He's such a great resource and one of the best coaches I'll ever know. |
With Lauren in foul trouble we had to go small. But we hit free throws at the end and took care of the ball. |
