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.

I know for Ambrosia, her freshman year we went to the tournament, so it's nice for her last year to have this opportunity.

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.

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.

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.
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.
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.
advantage coach easy focused huge likes offense outside shutting turned worry
Every coach likes turnovers because you can get easy baskets. That turned out to be a huge advantage for us tonight. On offense we didn't worry so much about the posts but focused more on shutting down the outside shots.
almost courtney giving good job paris rebounds season second shot third twin
Courtney Paris has almost a third of their team's rebounds this season and her twin sister, Ashley, has almost another third. We have to do a good job at not giving them second and third shot opportunities.
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.
