cares dance fired hustle ivory might tries wink
Ivory is a character. I don't think she really cares what she does. She just tries to be unique. She's the (Terrell Owens) of women's basketball. When she makes a hustle play or a steal, she might give you a dance or a wink to let you know that she's fired up. You just never know what she's going to do.

Shots like that just take everything out of you.
block brings drawn free game limit line moves people plan post step throw
She brings a lot of versatility. Down on the block she has her post moves but she can also step out and take people to the free throw line with her 15-foot jumper. We haven't drawn up the game plan yet. First, though, we're going to try to limit her touches. We don't want her to get the ball.

We're glad to get this one behind us.

We were a little bit upset by that overtime loss. We knew we were the better team, but it wasn't our night. Today in the first half, a lot of things worked for us. Maryland didn't quit. They fought back, and they gave us another good game.
coach expect expecting physical
Coach told us to expect a physical game, but we weren't expecting it to be as physical as it was.
ball cylinders hitting passing playing pressure shooting team turn
I think we were hitting on all cylinders -- passing the ball, shooting it well and playing team defense. As you can see, the pressure made them turn the ball over a lot in the first half.
