aggressive defense
We're very aggressive on offense. We can come out firing, but it has been our defense that has been our one disappointment.
amazing critical defense free hit hitting playing throws
She's hit game-winning free throws for us all year. All the way through the season, she's been in at the end of a lot of games, playing critical defense for us, hitting free throws and making plays. She's an amazing talent.
defense dominate game great maybe needed
I feel like we really needed a game like this. Maybe we don't dominate the stat sheet, but we play great defense and find a way to win.
defense players saw
It's pretty uncharacteristic of the players who were doing it and the way they were doing it. It was not the defense we saw but us.
against defense establish great inside letting obviously pressure team win
To be able to win against a team as great as Stanford, just gutting it out with our defense is exciting. We weren't letting them establish an inside game, which obviously put a lot more pressure on Candice.
best coming confidence defense good halftime knew needed playing saved second
I think we had a lot of confidence coming out at halftime that we had saved our best for the second half. We were playing good defense and we knew what we needed to do.
formidable game hard opponent road
We just need to take it one game at a time. Obviously, the most formidable opponent is Stanford. We just need to come out and play hard and try to salvage this road trip.
growing proud reagan
Reagan is really growing as a leader. I'm really proud of her.
depth hard pressure run
We have depth and we have speed. When we run on you and pressure you for 40 minutes, you're in for a long, hard day.
evaluate focus helps loss team
Sometimes, a loss helps you out because it helps you focus on things. One thing we have to do better as a team is evaluate and adjust.
good winning
We feel pretty good right now. We are back to winning the way that we were before the skid. We are back on our upswing, and we feel it.
season
We're disappointed in our performance, but in no way does it take away from an outstanding season that we had.
combined easy fatigue hard losing positive responses work
We really wanted to make them work hard and I think they got tired. They were losing the game, and with the fatigue combined it's easy to not have positive responses sometimes.
both either execute games good half played state
That weekend, with both those games (Oregon State and UCLA), we played one good half out of four. Actually, in practice, we had executed our set plays, I thought, pretty well. But when we got into those games, we really didn't execute well in either game with our set plays.
