Even though we were behind our girls didn't give up.

I'm disappointed in our turnovers. We have to take care of the ball in order to advance.
|
I've been telling them to keep poise in these games.
|
It was a very frustrating game. I know our girls can execute. We just made too many mistakes.
|
It was really a game of spurts tonight. We played well at times and had some rough spots.
|
Kee was able to control the ball well and spot up and hit the outside shots.
|
Late in the third and fourth quarters we just had too many turnovers and let them get into the game. We had 20 turnovers against a good team, and that was our downfall.
|
Lowery had her best game of the year. She can shoot. The team needed her tonight and she responded.
|
Offensively, we couldn't get going. We took two more 3-pointers than 2-pointers in the first half. They did a good job of plugging up the middle. But when you hold a team to 19 points, you can afford a poor shooting night.
|
Our first half was one of our best all year.
|
Some of that hurt in the locker room is knowing we had chances to win the game and we just didn't take it. Defensively, wow! I thought the girls were outstanding. That was championship defense we played. For the most part, we made them work for every one of their points.
|
We came out of the locker room and extended the lead. They didn't have an answer for Stevens. Then Lockhart, their big inside player, got into foul trouble and that opened up the middle of the court.
|
We did a much better job taking care of the ball today, but we had poor shooting early on.
|
We felt like we could full-court press the whole game. We knew we could sub out and not get tired. We felt we were stronger in that area.
|
We had good ball movement. We shot well, too, and I'm pleased with that.
