clutch hit seen shots thrives year
She thrives under pressure. What you've seen this year is what she showed us at Tennessee. The more pressure, the better she's going to play. She's hit so many clutch shots for us this year.
falling good shots start
Shots are going to start falling for us eventually. As long as we play good defense, good things are going to happen.
good job shot shots
They've shot over 600 three-pointers this year, and we've shot like 300. We've got to do a good job of getting out and contesting shots because they're going to put them up.
bottom knocked points shots trying won
They knocked shots down (while we were) trying to get back in a rhythm. But the important thing is that we won by 20 points and that's the bottom line.
came credit defense knock shots
Defensively we came out and we were aggressive. They just didn't knock down shots and credit our defense for that.
good job
We have to do a good job of getting out and contesting their shots.
fortunate guts leave played
We're very fortunate to get the win. Let's leave it at that. We let it frustrate us. We're human; we're going to make mistakes, and they played their guts out.
fights-and-fighting kept run
We went on a run and they made a little run of their own. Give them credit, they kept fighting.
days extreme four games players playing three win
To win four games in four days and have two or three players playing 40 minutes, that's extreme toughness.
moral victory win
There's no moral victory here; we wanted to win and that's why it hurts.
given hit huge individual lindsay point step stretch talent team
There's just so much individual talent on this team that at any given point someone is going to step up and make a play. Lindsay was huge down the stretch and Erin hit some big buckets for us.
catch chances drive finally hurt jump loves ourselves people position
We finally put ourselves in a position where (Hoskins) didn't catch it. She loves to drive baseline, so you have to take your chances with the jump shot. But it wasn't just Hoskins; a lot of other people hurt us.
against carry intensity next situation walking
We're walking into the same situation we had against Indiana. We have a lot to prove. Hopefully, we can carry this intensity over into the next game.
biggest confidence game
That was probably the biggest game in non-conference we had. Once we got that win, it got us going confidence wise.
