She's a load. Houston is a good ball player.

She said they're a perimeter team .... They're scrappy, and they push the ball up court on the fast break. And they're tough.

She's near the top in the conference in steals. She's really come into her own because we need her to handle the ball for us.

She's like a coach on the court ? she gets the girls together, makes them focus, gives direction out. That maturity level about her is fabulous, she's very unselfish ? too unselfish at times. And in pressure situations, she wants the ball in her hands. She doesn't put up (big) points, but she puts up everything else.

Chris Carpenter

Oh yeah. I knew. I got a little careless in the sixth with the catcher there, throwing him a bunch of breaking balls in a row. That's why it's so hard to do it. I wasn't concerned about it. I wanted to win the game, and we did.

Oh, yeah. I caught more balls in practice than I caught in Baltimore in a season. It's a great feeling to be here in Minnesota. It's a great place; great fans; great offense; great coaching staff. All around, it's a great place.

Oh, yeah, he made those great plays. What would have been if those balls got through?

Some balls bounced our way. Let's face it, Rutgers is a great team. They won 16 league games in a row. If we played them 10 times, they would win nine.
