Kelly Greenberg
Kelly Greenbergwas the Boston University Women's Basketball Head Coachuntil she resigned in 2014 amid charges of abusing players. Allegations that she mistreated players first surfaced in 2007 when the coach admitted she made some serious mistakes that she deeply regretted. When four players left the team and gave up their $60,000 per year scholarships in 2014, an internal investigation concluded that "the manner in which Coach Greenberg interacted with many of her players was incompatible with the expectations and standards...
brought energy great half holding played points team
It was a great team effort. We brought great energy and we played very unselfishly. Us holding them to 23 points in the first half was huge.
defense expected great hitting killer media open played shoot shot
No one expected her to shoot it, not at all. We played great defense and then it was kind of like nothing else was open and it just went in. Even all of the media up here were shocked. She had her night, she was hitting everything. It was a killer shot for us.
against definitely early finding great huge played player though
She played a great game. I thought Erica was definitely the player of the game. Early on when we scored against their zone, I think she was the one who made it happen, finding the seams in the zone, and I though she played huge for us.
hard people played save smart specific
Obviously, Rachael has played a lot of minutes. We want to play people a lot of minutes. We're not going to save people for a specific game. We just have to be smart with our off days. Even at practice, we need to be smart with how hard we go, how long we go.
forward games looking maine past played playing schools since team
It's a little strange, because other schools and even our men's team already know who they're facing, and we're still playing games. But it's been so long since we've played Maine or Hartford that we're really looking forward to it. We're not looking past these games at all.
abundance control fire good great played players pleased soon walked
We were very pleased with the way the team, players one through 14, played Saturday. Just as soon as we walked into Vermont's gym, there was this abundance of energy. It was great to see them come out on fire after halftime. I just thought we had good control of this game.
begins chance defense easy gave great played rebounds tough
I think we played great defense and that gave us a chance to get a lot of wide-open shots. We got a lot of tough rebounds, a lot of long rebounds and that gave us a chance to get some easy buckets. When you can get the easy shots, everything else just begins to click.
game matter minutes move played stressed thinking
I think we stressed a lot that this was a big game for them to try and move up in the standings. And in all honesty, I keep thinking that we don't have it locked, and no matter what you always want to play well. I think that for 30 minutes of tonight's game we played well.
court eight full game lots man minutes played rest start stayed
We played full court man-to-man to start the game with lots of pressure. With about eight minutes left, we went back to half-court man and stayed that way for the rest of the game.
blame factor fatigue hard nine period played players playing positive proud reason second smaller solid time using work
I don't think fatigue was a factor in all honesty. I was really proud of our players tonight. I think we played a very solid second half. We went with our two smaller forwards playing for a period of time there. We were down nine and we did a lot of really positive things. In all honesty, if fatigue ever is a factor I'm never using it as an excuse. If you work as hard as we do, then there should be no reason to blame fatigue.
bounce game hard lucky players playing presence question talking team
I never ever question the team playing hard. I know I'm very lucky that I have 14 players that play hard all the time, but I think we just weren't talking and we didn't have that bounce in our step. I think if you come out and make yourself know and want to have a presence you have to talk, and that part of our game we didn't bring.
anxious days hopefully
They've had a lot of days off now and they're very anxious to get back on the court. Hopefully we'll have them on Sunday.
care focusing girls goals locker room striving taking three walked
I walked in the locker room and the girls said, 'We're 3-0 right now in the new season,' and that's our thing - we have three more games, we're taking care of business. We have goals that we're focusing on defensively and offensively, and the girls are really striving for that. I think it's narrowed in our focus a little bit.
came entire experience game great happening loud players sat signed together worked
It was a great experience and great for our players. It was loud the entire time, even when nothing was happening in the game. After the game our players came out and sat with them, joked around and signed autographs. Everyone who worked to put it together did a great job.
