I don't think there's any good feeling about losing. I think that as a team, we've come a tremendously long way since November and December. In a couple of weeks, we can look back at that and be proud of it, but I don't think it makes this loss more acceptable or make it hurt any less. |

I think we learned a lot this week about game situations. We're excited about playing again. |
I think when you lose, you learn more from it. We'll probably take more out of this than if we'd won. If we'd won, we'd be happy, but we wouldn't focus on the things we didn't do well. |
I was just taking what the defense was giving me. In the second half, I was finding some space and getting up good shots. |
I was really happy for Cissy for playing well in her hometown. She was making smart plays and great passes and she was finishing, but I'm also happy about what it means for our team. We benefit a lot from what she's able to do. |
It takes a minute to adjust to their physicality, and I didn't adjust quick enough. |
It's going to be exciting to play a team that's doing as well as they're doing. |
Kristen (Newlin) played a lot of the defense on Courtney last night, so she is going to be the main person guarding Sylvia. Sylvia is different from Courtney. She's very athletic. She can jump very well. She can rebound very well. |
More times, that will be less successful for them than Courtney on the block going one-on-one. |
My teammates did a great job of finding me when I was open and my shots were dropping. |
She was in a position that wasn't really ideal, but she's earned what she's gotten. She's talented and smart and she works really hard. |
Sylvia is a little different from Courtney. She is really athletic and she can jump really well. We are going to look at what she likes to do and take that away from her. |
We're sad that he's not with us. |
You can really tell when she scores and when she makes defensive plays, when she makes stops and blocks shots, how much that picks up the energy on the team. |
