It was nice to get the home win versus Virginia, and now our first ACC road game, it gives us confidence to get back into the race and continue on our roll. |
It's hard not to focus on Jess because you've got to neutralize her as best you can. At the same time, they've got good guard play. You can't take away everything, so hopefully you take away the bigger parts. |
Megan is really efficient. She has a command for the game. She directs her team. She brings a really great calmness to her teammates and she also has the ability to score. A scoring point guard makes that person even more dangerous. |
Our guys in practice can't even duplicate what they do because they're athletic, they're quicker. You see an opening, it's there, and you've got to thread the needle because they do a really good job of covering a lot of ground. |
Our players are looking forward to a fresh start. We didn't finish the regular season the way we would have liked, but after 10 days off we're ready to play other teams instead of ourselves. |
Our players think they can play with anyone, I mean, you look at some of our losses to the No. 6 team [Maryland] and the No. 2 team [Duke] in the country, we were playing very well. |
She a very gutsy kid and has great range to get her shots off. |
She came in here on a mission and took that team on her shoulders. She had a hunger to score. |
She can shoot. Sarah likes to distribute the ball and get other people to do. But when she's open, she can drive and has the pull up ability. I'm glad she got to show that today. |
She is a mature kid. I look at her and say hey, here's a kid who can handle that pressure so I can probably put her at the foul line when the game is on the line. Whether she makes them I don't know, but she'll know how to handle that. |
She's a great shooter. We tried to get her shots and she took advantage. |
That's all we heard is we lost five in a row. All we worked on was our execution on defense. |
That's why she's a great player. She comes in at the end of games and does what's necessary. |
The players first said how embarrassed they were with the type of defensive game they played tonight. Our defense keeps us in games and wins us ball games, keeps us close. We just got out of a rhythm from the start. |
The players were confident coming into today's game. They continued to plug along. |
