easy free hit lead miss point shot three
Miranda hit the three free throws, and they go down and miss an easy shot to end the half. That was a pretty big swing. An eight-point lead at that point in the game, with the way things were going, was pretty nice.
aggressive free halftime interior line needed players talked throw
At halftime we talked about being aggressive. We needed to get more aggressive and get to the free throw line. With our interior players we should get to the free throw line more than we did in the first half.
four free hard needed shots stretch swing technical time
We only made two out of the four technical free throws. So it wasn't like it was a six-point swing or anything. They just had a hard time making shots after that and we executed down the stretch and did the things we needed to do to win the game.
free good half hardly key lead line second shoot throws time
It (foul trouble) may have been a key in the second half. But we didn't shoot hardly any free throws in the first half. The second half they had more fouls than we did. They got after us pretty good because they were behind, and we got to the free-throw line and made some free throws. Obviously, any time you've got the lead and you make free throws, it's big.
develop example game games great hard improve perseverance summer worked
It was a great example of perseverance on Sara Jensen's part. She has worked very hard over the summer to improve her game and develop confidence, and she has had some outstanding games for us this season.
coming great job momentum scared
We had them scared and had some momentum going. We did a great job of coming back.
hard hit needed pitching pleased time
We had a hard time getting the big hit when we needed it. Overall, I was very pleased with our pitching and our defense.
basketball bringing centers excelled excited front good guards help large line players recruiting
We are very excited about this large recruiting class. I feel we are bringing in some guards that can help us immediately and some forwards and centers that will probably be our front line of the future. These players are not only good basketball players but most have excelled in different sports.
composure good hall job keeping needed run second stretch
We did a good job of keeping our composure when they made the run on us in the second half. Noelle Hall had some big baskets down the stretch for us, which is what we needed her to do.
ball hit
We had some chances. We didn't hit the ball particularly well.
bottom few hits
We got a few hits from the bottom of the order, which is encouraging.
anybody chance hold kindness pitching players playing runs score training younger
We're playing a lot of younger players and we're making a lot of young mistakes. It's kind of on-the-job training for our young guys. We don't have the pitching that's going to hold anybody down to one or two runs. We have to score some runs to have a chance to win.
adam continued fuels good hits hitters last passion power top trend
Adam was one of our top hitters last year, and he has continued that trend this year. He not only hits for a good average, but for power as well. He has a real passion for the game, and that fuels his fire.
ball conference couple defense hard hold kids played shooting team trouble
A couple of our perimeter kids are having trouble shooting the ball right now. They'll have to shoot better when we play the conference teams. I thought our defense played pretty well the whole game. It's hard to hold a team to 50 points.
