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.
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.
against career crowds good help road situation team throughout
We've been on the road throughout my career with sell-out crowds against really good teams. When you're in a situation like that, you have to know how to help your team win.
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.
attitude career diving early help helping knew knows loose march national needs order playing team win
They called her Ms. March early on in her career because she knew what she had to do in order to get our team to a national championship. I think that?s her attitude right now. She knows what she needs to do to help our team go out and win the Big East. She?s just been playing that way, diving on tables, diving on loose balls, getting after rebounds. She?s getting back to Will. You can tell, and it?s really helping our team out.
came careers closes game start
When we came in as freshmen, we thought we were going to start every game together. It's fitting. It closes out our careers really well here at Connecticut.
care good happened heads key together tough
There were stretches where we were really good and there were stretches where we had lulls. But the key thing is that we were able to put our heads together and come out with a win, especially on the road. That's really a tough thing to do. I don't care who you're playing. And that's what happened (Sunday) and that's why we were able to win.
attitude both career carry hopefully legacy minds onto regular season talked tournament win won year
I think it's real important (to win the championship) because we haven't had a year in our career where we've won both. So I think that's something that we've talked about also as being part of being a part of our legacy to be able to say that we won both regular season and tournament championships. So that's something we also have in the back of our minds going into (tonight) and hopefully we can carry that attitude onto the floor.
apart both career east legacy regular season talked title tournament won year
I think it's real important because we haven't had a year in our career where we've won both (the regular-season title and the Big East tournament). We've always won one or the other. So I think that's something that we've talked about also as being part of being apart of our legacy to be able to say that we won both regular season and tournament championships.
carefree couple felt game games herself knew last loose mattered though
I knew before the game that Will was going to come out and play that way. She felt as though she hadn't let herself loose over the last couple of games in the tournament. She said she was just going to play carefree and play like nothing else mattered but winning.
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.
