It was a great defensive effort. We're proud of our inside players both on offense and defense. Melinda and Jenny did an excellent job taking out their top two players.
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.

We have to go in and play with a lot of confidence. We know if we win we are in first place no matter what.
classy left pull rub starters
When you're up 25 points, you pull your starters out with 1:54 left in the game. It's a classy way. You don't need to rub it in.
coming defense good improvement seeing team together
Our team defense was very good today. I'm seeing a lot of improvement in our freshmen, and I like the way we are coming together as a team.

Marsh is a tremendous post player and an incredible athlete. We've got some really good post players, and we could not stop her.

I was extremely pleased with Laura's effort and work tonight. She may not always get a lot of minutes, but she is a very solid player who is able to stay calm and direct the team. She played great tonight.

I think playing in Denver is an advantage. We've played there (in the Mountain West Conference tournament) the past three years. We're very comfortable in the arena and at the altitude.
anyone foul interior presence size stay sure team
I think we're one team that has the interior presence to stay with Oklahoma. I'm not sure if anyone in the Big 12 had the size to compete. But we have to stay out of foul trouble.
coming good habit locker rooms routines
I think habit is a big part of the game, and we go through all these routines as a team. I think coming back here, we feel like we know this facility. We know the locker rooms probably as good as anybody.

Jennie's a gamer. I give a lot of credit to New Mexico's players, but she was absolutely determined to make sure we won this game. She was huge for us.
aggressive almost confidence played
Kubik played with a lot of confidence and scored well. She was aggressive and almost had a double-double. If I would have played her more, she would have had it.
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.
came eight intensity points shot
We couldn't get a shot to go in. I thought if we could keep it between eight and 10 points (at halftime) we could make a run, but they came out with more intensity than we did.
