I'm just so proud of them. They love the game of basketball and it shows. The last couple of games they just brought me along for the ride. |
I'm so proud of these kids. This is a dream come true for them and the culmination of a lot of hard work. It was a total team effort from top to bottom and I couldn't be prouder. |
It's just awesome to have made it. This is what little girls dream of when they're playing in the driveway with their moms and dads, getting rebounds. |
My assistant coaches have watched them. I'm watching tape right now. They're a good team. Very athletic. But that's what were focused on and that's what's important right now. |
Rutgers is a very good defensive team and so are we, and we have a lot of weapons. |
Rutgers is a very good defensive team and so are we, and we have a lot of weapons. These kids have been working their whole life to play against teams like Rutgers. We did play against Connecticut last year. We got spanked, but we did play them. We have played some similar schools in this kind of environment. |
She was phenomenal. The score at the end had Rutgers with more points than Dartmouth, but there's no way we were losers. |
They were having fun out there. What could be better for them? This is Rutgers. This is New Jersey. This is awesome. |
This is a program where the kids try to get better. As the players get better, so does the program. |
We have enormous respect for Rutgers and their tradition, but we have our own tradition, as well. We've won 15 of the last 26 Ivy League championships. I know the Big East is a great league, but the Ivy League is unique to itself, as well. We're looking forward to the competition. |
We're clearly delighted to be in the NCAA tournament. We've played Rutgers before and we know their history and tradition, but we have our own history and tradition. |
We've won 15 of the last 26 Ivy league tournaments. So the girls have been down this road before, they're battle-tested and ready to go. |
