building commitment headed job knew players program three took
When we took the job three years ago we knew we had some building to do. With the players that have been able to come in and the commitment of these players, I can't say enough for what they've done for me and to be able to get this program headed into the right direction.
changed standpoint talent
Those two from a talent standpoint have really changed our team.
double percent shoots team
You can't double team Marsh well when (Katie) Montgomery shoots 51 percent (from 3-point range).
continue direction excited good next players win
We have to continue to get good players. Players win games. I get them in the right direction, but you have to have good players. I'm excited about our next class.
players step
We've had a lot of different players step up for us (in the post).
board gained hit knew momentum players points seemed shots three took
(Idaho State) can put points on the board and have the players to do it, and I knew it was going to be a real battle. They gained some momentum and took the lead, then Erin Hicks hit two big three point shots which put us back up and it seemed like we took over from there.
basket credit crowd nebraska stop tonight
One of the things I thought tonight is that we could never put two big baskets together, or put a basket and a stop together. And I give Nebraska a lot of credit for that. We got the crowd into it. I thought we were going to get a little momentum, and they would stop it immediately with a big play.
basketball best guards post shoot talented
(Nebraska) is a very talented team. Their guards can shoot the basketball. They have the post presence. We're going to have to play at our best level.
chance defending post thinking
We're always undersized in the post so our thinking was we had a better chance at defending on the perimeter than in the post.
good guard hardy season
Hardy is as good a guard as we'll see all season long.
believe country high league might strongest top winning
I was in this league when it was the High Country (Athletic Conference) and I believe that this might be the strongest this league has been from top to bottom. There's a lot of winning going on in this league and it's going to be a challenge.
ball beyond contribute expected far gone knew program quality stepping team
We knew when we recruited Megan that we were getting a quality ball player. But what she's been able to contribute to this team has gone far beyond what we expected from her stepping into the program as a freshman.
anyone committee compared comparing conference hope mountain takes teams west
I hope when the committee takes a look at teams that it's not just comparing two Mountain West Conference teams. I hope we're being compared to anyone else in the country.
good knew
I knew we couldn't play a half-court game. They have too much size, and they're a very good team.
