execute last order shot
The last shot was for Ann. We all didn't execute well. We all didn't do the right things in order for her to get open.
defensive good knew needed seemed shot team time tough
We knew how tough they were at home, we knew how good of a team they were. We knew we were going to have to respond. It seemed like every time we needed to make a play or make a shot or get a defensive stop, we were able to do it.
box clicked knew shots time
We just knew that everything clicked right. We knew that we got the right shots and we did everything we wanted to do in our offense. Any time you have that feeling, there really is no need to look at the box score.
ball moved open shots
They were just open. The ball moved really well and that?s usually what happens, you get open shots when you move the ball really well.
ball confidence focused keeping matter move ourselves people position shot teams ugly
It?s going to be ugly sometimes. We?re not the Connecticut teams of old. Every shot is not going to fall, the ball is not going to move the way people want it to move. It?s just a matter of us keeping the confidence that we can keep ourselves in a position to win. That?s all we?re focused on right now.
accept amount composure deep early far fight inside maintain missed season shots wide win
I don't know if early in the season we would have been able to maintain our composure with the amount of shots we missed that were wide open. It was very frustrating. But something deep down inside us said we have to fight through this and win this game. We didn't come this far just to pout about not making shots and accept it.
biggest bit carry defensive half lost moments rebounds second shot stretch time
I think we lost focus. I think that's the biggest thing. Any time where you go through a stretch where you're getting every shot you want to get, you're making every play, you're getting rebounds on the defensive end ... you're going to have moments where you're going to struggle. I think we let those moments carry over a little bit too long, especially in the second half after that 18-point lead.
best biggest learned ncaa ourselves position shots tournament win yourselves
I think we learned that when it comes down to it, if we can make big shots offensively we?re going to put ourselves in a position to win because we?re going to get things done defensively. I think that?s the biggest thing we can take from this tournament ? and I think that?s the best part about this tournament ? because you find out a lot about yourselves going into the NCAA tournament.
battle both came few game good job needed night plays point shooting shots tough
I think it had to be a little frustrating for them. But you have to give us some credit, too. We did a good job on defense, especially down the stretch. It was a tough shooting night for both of us. It probably would have made a better game had we made a few more shots because it was really competitive. It just came down to who made the plays when they needed to make them. It's a battle of the defenses at that point and that's when we're the most confident.
offense open ran screen shot
Our offense just clicked. We ran everything that he wanted us to run, set every screen he wanted us to set and got every open shot we wanted to get.
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.
deal fight game ourselves played position sure tie watch win
I know we didn't play our 'A' game. I give them credit. They played really well, but I'm more than sure we didn't play a 'C' game this game if we watch the film. We didn't do enough to win this game. But we have to deal with it. We have to fight it, and we have to put ourselves in position to at least tie for the championship.
happened
I'm kind of in shock; everything has happened so fast.
coach determined embrace further game happy lead met outcome proof putting team trying
It's something that we met with Coach about ... putting the game on our shoulders. We just want to know that we determined the outcome and I'm really happy that Ann made those shots, because it's just further proof that we're still trying to embrace this team and put it on our back and lead us to victory.
