Obviously, you want to have fresh bodies. But we just need to do our work before she catches the ball and make sure that we limit her touches. |
She got us back in it. |
Take her home. We talked about that a long time ago. This is Nicole's chance, so we have to get her there. Obviously, you want to go out on top. We all talk about it, even before we became seniors. You want to go out with a national championship, and we know what we need to do in order for that to happen. |
We have no complaints about our bracket. The committee did what they did for a reason and we're happy where we're seeded and we're happy we have a chance to do what we hope to do, which is to come back home and play in front of our crowd. |
We only think about (losing to Stanford last year) when (reporters) ask us about it. I think everybody is totally different from last year, and right now we?re just thinking about what we need to do to get the win this year. |
We really want to go out on top, just not being seniors but just knowing that we have something to prove within ourselves. We went through all these three years before this, we just need to come out there and play hard and, obviously, get the national championship. |
You just have to do whatever you can to make sure you get that extra day. You leave it all out there because you never know what might happen, it might be your last game, and you don?t want it to be. |
You know she wanted to be in there, she wants to do something to help her teammates out. That probably won't leave her head, that she wasn't in at the end of the game to help us out. |
You know what's getting me to play better? Not thinking at all. I think right now I'm in a good place where it's like 'just play. Don't worry about what's going to happen, what might happen. Do what you're good at and everything else will fall into place.' I can play defense and I can rebound. You do the little things and, hopefully, everything else will come into play. Whether it's getting on the boards, diving on the floor ... whatever I can do. |
You never want it to end. Just knowing all the memories we have with this team, it's sad. But ... it's good that we came out and did what we needed to do to get the win. If we keep doing what we're supposed to do, we'll have a good memory at the end. |
