This team has played some close games like this. They've had teams make runs on them. We've had people foul out. They just found a way. That really helped us tonight ? we've been in that situation before.
beat deserve free games hard missing momentum second teams tie watched
I've watched so many games where the teams tie the game up with a 3 and take momentum into overtime. If they were going to beat us, they were going to do it the hard way by making a free throw, missing the second and getting the rebound. If they do that, they deserve to get into overtime.
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.

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.

I'm extremely proud of Ambrosia. She is a special player who works hard and just lets the offense come to her.
bodies call floor hope next players post sitting strength sure uses
I hope they let them play. If they call it close, then I hope they call them on her (Paris) too, because she bodies up and uses her strength to her advantage. But we're going to go through it and make sure our post players know that it's more important for them to be on the floor than sitting next to me.

I'm just really proud of these young ladies. They came together and got it done, it was a big game for us.

In a three-game tournament, you can't rely on your outside game. You've got to have good players inside and you have to be able to stop people. We have the most depth and the best inside presence of any team left in the tournament.
