We knew Molly was a bit of a risk when she came here because she had kind of lost her love of the game. I love Molly as a person and just want what's best for her. She leaves with nothing but best wishes from me and her teammates.
ability category effort game giving offensive plan plays proud rebounds satisfied shots
I'm really proud of our effort in this game. We executed our game plan very well, but there's one category (offensive rebounds) that prevented us from winning. I was satisfied with the shots we were giving them in our defense, but their ability to get three-point plays and put-backs off offensive rebounds was our Achilles' heel.
