girls great nice obviously program testament title truly winning
Obviously winning the MWC title is great. We haven't been here in awhile, so it's nice to win it again. The championship is great for the BYU program and is truly a testament to the girls on the team.
best defender example great tail
She's the best defender in the league. I don't know what we'd do without her. She's a great example, and busts her tail every day.
best couple freshman games hard high hit injured knew played player plays state win won
She's won two state championships (in high school). In those two championships, she made the plays to win the game. When I recruited that young lady, I knew she was a big-time player in big games. She's had a hard freshman year. She got injured and she got sick. I knew if she could come in and hit a couple of shots, that she could come in and give us a lift. That's the kind of player she is. She played one of her best games of the season.
eight hurt minutes points
She scored more points in eight minutes than she scored in the first half. That really hurt us.
percentage says since six teams top
Since I've been here, we've never had six teams in the (Ratings Percentage Index) top 60. I think that says a lot for our conference.
good possible seed win
The more we can win ? and get a good seed and get as good a match-up as possible ? is important.
beat edge fans five four games good great hopefully mexico thousand
It's going to be a battle. New Mexico is very good and athletic. I think it will be a great game. If we can beat them it will be a big edge for us because we would be up two games on them in the conference. Hopefully we can get four to five thousand fans here.
emotions girls hard
It's hard to play here. There's a lot of emotion, our girls aren't used to that.
basketball best dominated game great played playing totally
Dani played a great game today. She totally dominated inside. She's playing her best basketball right now.
beat crystal impressed quickness ready seen size
They have a lot of quickness with Crystal Smith. We haven't seen that in our league. They have size and quickness. The thing that I am impressed with is their balance. They don't make mistakes. They don't beat themselves. Hopefully, we'll be ready for them.
practicing team
You can't kill a team by practicing too much.
early run second stuff sync tried
I tried to run some stuff for her early in the second half, but she just wasn't in sync tonight.
honored memories number special wonderful
This is very special to me to have that number up there. I'm very honored . . .I've had a lot of wonderful memories in this building.
against average beat best games notch seem step took
They seem to play their best games against us. If we took our average games, we would probably beat them, but they always seem to step it up a notch and really play well.
