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.
difficult fans far hard hopefully parents side trip
We feel like we play well here with the altitude. We hopefully will get fans here from our conference. It's not a real far trip for our fans. I've been on the other side when we've had to go way back out east, and financially it's hard to have parents and fans come. This is not a real difficult trip. We feel real comfortable here and hopefully we can play well.
easy hard night work
I don't know what it is. I think sometimes when you try really hard that things don't work as well or as easy as you hope. And it just wasn't our night tonight.
best hard wish
I wish them the best of luck. They are the best in the country. I think they will be very hard to beat.
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.
came good hard indicative nice played team
It was a nice win. It was something this team needed. TCU is a very good team. We really came out and played hard -- that's indicative by the 51 rebounds.
emotions girls hard
It's hard to play here. There's a lot of emotion, our girls aren't used to that.
came good guard hard hitting took
They came out and defensively took it to us. When they're hitting 3s like that it's hard to guard them because (Dionne) Marsh is so good inside.
extremely hard lets offense player proud special works
I'm extremely proud of Ambrosia. She is a special player who works hard and just lets the offense come to her.
battling credit hit
We weren't going to give her a three, no way . . . . But she hit those others, and you have to give them credit for battling their way back into it.
game utah
We got outplayed tonight. Utah outplayed us in every part of the game. They wanted this game more.
although ball floor grateful needs oklahoma played spread wish
We're very grateful to be here, although I wish we had played better. But you have to give Oklahoma a lot of credit. They're well-coached and well-organized. They know how to spread the floor and get the ball where it needs to be.
both couple excited last successful talented team university
We're very excited to be in the tournament. We know every team there is very talented and has had successful seasons. We haven't been in for the last couple of years, so I think both the team and the university are very excited.
adds exciting exposure game players
The women's game is really changing, and it's really exciting to see it get the exposure that it really deserves. To see her dunk, to see players get so much more quicker, athletic, adds something to this game.
