The obvious thing is we have to take more pride in boxing out and getting bodies on people. Many people may use the excuse because we're small, but rebounding is effort. It has nothing to do with your size. It's how badly you want the ball than the next person. That's all it is.

along games good individual liked pull rather team together worry
I have put together some good games or whatever, but I still don?t think it is enough because I haven?t been able to pull my team along as much as I would have liked to. You always want us to get better as a team rather than worry about individual statistics.

I played with my back to the basket all of my college career, but I'm very comfortable playing out on the perimeter. I think it's a weakness of mine, but I think it's something that can become stronger with a lot of repetition.

I guess we have proven everything everyone said right, because I don?t know if we would have been in this same position last year if we had her.

If she can have a good stretch the next four games going into the Big East tournament, it will get her some endurance and get her some conditioning, and it will help our team. We need her a lot.

Every team that?s successful and wins national championships has one so, obviously, we?re going to need her.
