I guess I never really look at it that way. I'm not, in a game, feeling like I should or shouldn't shoot. If I become open, I'm going to shoot. |
I had to get something going for us to win this. |
I just think we have all the things you need right now. I feel like if everybody does their piece and plays up to their potential, there is no team that can stop us. I honestly believe that. It's great to think about it like that. Being in the Final Four and having won the national championship twice, we have seen what it takes to win. I see that in us now. |
I knew the momentum was either going to go their way or ours. Will Crockett and Barbara Turner set some awesome screens and I finally hit some shots. As a senior in this position, you want to leave everything out there. |
I think as a player, you look at it the opposite way, too. You say, 'I wouldn't have been a part of it if it hadn't been for him.' I think that's the way we all look at it. We're fortunate to have played for him. I think it's awesome. You have to go through a certain amount of years [to be eligible], but it's something that he could have and should have had earlier. |
I think going into the tournament if it gets to that situation, that?s something that I would definitely look to try to do. Make sure everyone is calm and try to step up and get us out of that little drought. |
I think he?s always acted like a Hall of Fame coach. |
I think I was fortunate. I came into a situation as a freshman where I had the opportunity to play right away. And a lot of freshmen don't have that opportunity. |
I think it was just a crucial play that we needed at a big point in the game. Either they were going to get the momentum back on their side and continue to kind of chip away at us and you could've seen something that happened the other night. It definitely was a big play. Coach called it up and Barbara set a great screen. I was wide open. |
I think she?s really coming into who she can really be and I think that?s a big reason why coach has been so hard on her, he?s seen the talent in her. For her to play like this, she just took it all on her back tonight and got us a win. |
I think that's the way that coach has always, kind of something he's always been know for. He knows how to prepare a team for this time of year. |
I think that's what makes it so frustrating. You look at a game like tonight and you see how good we can look and then you say the only reason we lost tonight is because we beat ourselves. We let another team come back into it and we mentally kind of got shaken. I think that's something that's going to be the biggest thing going into the (Big East and NCAA) tournaments. |
I think this is a crucial time. I don't think it's something that you can just look past to just get through it. I think right now is a time when we really need to come together and figure out who we are and what we need to be to go into the second half of the season. |
I think this is a good win for us, but there's always something you can take from it. Obviously, tonight being up 19 and then letting them kind of come back and then having it down to the wire the last few minutes is something that we need to work on. And we need to develop some maturity if we want to be as good as we can be in the (NCAA) tournament. |
I think we definitely have some things that we need to prove to ourselves, not to anybody else. That's obvious. Right now I feel like everyone's in a really good place and ready to go into postseason play. |
