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.
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.
amount ball basketball care efficient fast great job limit mean mistakes offense players poor taking
We have to take care of the ball better. I think in spurts we did a poor job of taking care of the basketball and they weren't even pressuring us. Sometimes we just play so fast that we make mistakes that we don't mean to make. I think we need to limit the amount of times that we do that because they have some great players on offense and they're going to get things done. We have to be just as efficient on offense as they are.
advance basketball far feed gratifying guys help pressure season special stuff talk together toughest tournament trying younger
This season would be really, really special if we were to advance far in the tournament because it's been the toughest season on the players. A lot of these younger guys are experiencing stuff they've never experienced before with all of the pressure and all of the talk about us not being able to play together in the Connecticut basketball sense. It would be very, very gratifying to go far in the tournament. I think that's something that we're trying to feed off of and we're trying to use that to help us play.
basketball fans feeling felt game sure
This was very close. I'm sure the fans kind of felt like it was Connecticut basketball all over again. And there's no better feeling in the world to be able to get one game like that.
basketball career feeling game line opportunity
Never in my basketball career have I had the opportunity that I just had with the ball in my hands, with the game on the line and to be able to make the shot. There is no better feeling in the world.
basket college played playing stronger weakness
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.
lost mostly played playing press run
We just lost our composure. I give them credit. They played hard, but mostly it was us playing too fast. We went on a run at the beginning, but then they started to press and we lost our minds.
crowd fast friday front ordinary surprised tonight turned
It was weird. I said Friday I'd be surprised if we didn't play well. But we didn't. We had a big crowd tonight and we wanted to play well in front of them. Everything was so fast and out of the ordinary that it turned out wrong.
lose time ugly year
It was an ugly win, but at this time of the year it doesn't really matter. It's about winning. You lose you go home.
ball broken took
It was a broken play. I just called for the ball and took the shot. That was that.
august coming early last late mid playing process season september since slow until year
I've been playing since early August and it was a slow process getting back in. It wasn't until mid to late September when I started to feel like myself again. I feel light-years better than I did last year coming into this season physically.
feeling game minds national run
There would be no better feeling than to be able to end this with a run at the national championship. I think it is in the back of our minds, and it is something that we are going to try to keep in our minds game in and game out.
last plays prior win
We didn't make plays prior to that for us to win the game, so that's what it all comes down to. It doesn't come down to the last play.
