Every game we had was important to stay in the hunt. We knew how important the games were. It wasn't until about the last game that we could relax a little. |
I have all the respect in the world for Franklin, they are very tough to beat at home and they always play us hard. We came out a little bit sluggish, but I reminded the girls what stakes they were playing for, and they responded. |
I thought we had a chance despite what I thought was one of the most uninspiring performances by my team since I've been the head coach here. But of course, the two things that have hurt us all season, turnovers and poor shooting percentage, cost us at the end. |
If we win the next two games, we should be in the playoffs. If we go 1-1 against Tracy before finishing the regular season at Lincoln, its going to be real close. |
Obviously, it helped prepare us that every game we played counted. |
Our defense stepped up in the third quarter, and Missy hitting those two shots were just huge. It gave us some breathing room and we were able to make some adjustments. |
They made it close. In the fourth they started trapping aggressively and we started turning the ball over. |
