along good liked matter pull team together
You always want your team to play well no matter what you do. I have put together some good games, but I still don't think it's enough, because I haven't been able to pull my team along as much as I would have liked to.
along coach fame goes guess hall thirty wins
We have a Hall of Fame coach so I guess that goes along with it. Thirty wins in 11 out of 13 years ... those are Hall of Fame numbers.
anywhere best close felt games matter near row six team
We've had games where we've been close (to being complete). We've had games where we've not been anywhere near on the same planet. But it's just a matter of us really, really concentrating. And when we do we look so good. We can have six possessions in a row where we look like the best team in the country. And then we'll go through these stretches where it's like, 'Man, what are we doing out there?' And that's what it felt like (Wednesday).
act bit defensive good last main minutes seven stop struggled team turning
That was the turning point. We struggled a little bit offensively, but the main thing was that we started to stop them defensively. That last seven minutes we just clamped down and said that we're a good defensive team and we need to act like it.
basket closed foul free game point throw turning
That was the turning point of the game. We didn't give up a basket and we didn't foul them and put them on the free throw line. I think that right there pretty much closed the game out.
fighting good job matter mouth position talking tough tougher whether year
That whole Connecticut thing is tough. It's a tough situation. We're off the radar. Like nobody's really talking about us, but they are. So no matter what, Connecticut's always going to come out of somebody's mouth whether it's negative, positive. It's been tougher this year than any year for me. It's something that we've done a really good job of fighting through, and I think that's why we are in the position we're in right now.
confidence gave guts rest shot
That's the shot that you have to make, and that's the shot that you have to have the guts to take. For her to do that, that just gave us confidence for the rest of the game.
basketball impact knew though
That's what I knew when I was being recruited. Just her impact on women's basketball ... it's something you will always have to appreciate, even though you weren't a part of it.
competing hard tried until
I was out there competing just as hard as I could, working without my legs. I tried to go until I couldn't go any more.
accept career concerned crossed final great guess happened help mind smile sure team trying until
I wasn't concerned about my career at the end of the game. I was concerned about trying to help my team win. My career never crossed my mind until the final buzzer rang. I guess we just have to accept it and look back and see all the great things that happened this season. I am sure it will take a little while to do that, but when we do, we will be able to look back and smile at the end.
future good leader name next talking team
I think Renee is going to be the leader of this team. I think she could be the next person that everybody's talking about as the big name for Connecticut. I think her future is very bright. She's going to lead this team and they're going to be very good next year.
crying emotions game guess hit sad senior sure
It doesn't feel like it's Senior Night. I guess it will probably hit me around 7 o'clock. Of course, we will have emotions before the game. It will be sad. But we have to make sure we don't have those same sad emotions and crying after the game because we lost. We want to go out with a win.
ahead class finish lean stupid toward
I think I can lean more toward basketball. But, obviously, I'm going to go ahead and finish the one class because it would just be stupid if I didn't.
best focus ourselves past prepare three time wherever
Wherever we're at, we're at. At this time of year, we just need to focus on what we need to do to prepare ourselves for this tournament. That's what we've done best the past three days. Just focus on ourselves.
