She's right there and instead of being beside somebody or behind them, she's right in front of them where you're supposed to be. And then able to come down and get the ball. There was a sequence there where she had a lay-up, a put-back, and then got the ball and kicked it out to somebody else and scored. So the neat thing is that they're able to do more than just steal and score. So it was a nice night for her. The beauty of that is somebody should come in off the bench and do that. Hopefully there's two or three that come in and do it. |
Some of it is that they have to have a double team for her. It's a compliment to her and her game. |
Sooner or later we've got to beat them. We rushed a few shots and that's when the lead spreads from seven or eight to 14 or 15. |
That's 17 to 18 points, 10 rebounds we're losing right away. That's the $64,000 question. You just hope that some of the younger kids watched her and draw something from it. |
The best thing was, with all that going on, Rachel had a great first half. She picked us up there and she did things on the board. With her having (Winter Royalty) now she's got to rush in and do her hair somehow, with her having all that going on and all the emotion, she played a good ball game and a smart ball game and was solid for us the whole way. Kudos to her because she was solid that way, she's our queen. |
The big thing for her was that she rebounded well. She scored and hit the big shots. |
The first half she was struggling but when she turns a corner or hits a shot or steps up and hits a play then it kind of opens things up. Her and Brittney are both the motor that makes us go. So they've got to do well and they both played real composed in the second half and real strong for us. |
The last two or three games we shot the ball real well from the free throw line. I think the free throws will come around. |
The Mill Valley game was big. She's solid in so many areas. She's just become more polished and become a better shooter and ball handler. |
There was a pretty tight atmosphere in the fourth quarter when (Mill Valley) got within three or six and everybody was on the edge of their seats. We tightened up a little bit and we just have to relax and make those. I think the biggest thing for the girls is relax. Just relax and enjoy it, whatever happens Saturday, happens. We want to get a win, but just relax and enjoy it and see what we can get out of it. |
There's a reason why they're 5-0. For the first three quarters they came out and executed, and that's what we wanted to do. |
There's got to be a little execution. Also there's got to be a little fire. We have to execute, shoot free throws and be solid. We're going to have to play some good defense. |
This is excellent news. We are looking forward to building on our strong relationship with the union and working together for the future. |
Two different halves really. The first half we just get 16 points and we struggle really, and (Bonner) did what they wanted. Second half we outscored them 37-19. |
We just kind of went out and we were going, but we weren't going full-bore. Then that second quarter, I thought was huge. |
