finally gets good great putting senior
It's really been a progression. Now, she's finally a senior and she's putting it all together. It's amazing. She finally gets it and then she's graduating, but it's great she finally got it. To me she's having a very good senior year. She's contributing a lot.
defensive great guard huge job point presence scoring
Della has been a huge presence for us on the defensive end. She's done a great job on the opposing team's point guard and has had some big scoring games.
against ball bit credit defense game great handle last plan played rush san shoot smarter talented team
San Jose is a very talented team and we have to shoot the ball better. Part of that is a credit to their defense too, they made us rush shots. We have to be a little bit smarter on offense, play a little bit stronger. And they played us pretty physical. We need to handle that better, play with more composure. They're game plan was great against us last week. We need to be more prepared.
building expect great practice week
She had a really great week of practice building up to this, so I expect her to play her game. I don't think she'll be nervous.
basketball beat classy game great leave respect team
They're a great team and they're very well-coached. They're great, but not cocky. They go out there and leave it all on the floor. ... They're a classy organization. I respect them a lot, and we'll have to play a great basketball game to beat them.

We talked about playing in the past. It made sense with the two sisters playing. It's great for their family too.

I know they'll be extremely motivated to keep this going.
capable creating game knew looking shot talked
I knew she could get a shot off. I knew with her speed, that's her game, getting to the hole, creating and finishing. I knew she was capable of it. We had talked about her looking to score.
ball pushing ran stepped
They keyed on her. They stepped up defensively on her. She wasn't pushing the ball as much as I would have liked. I think she ran out of gas.
die field given happen last people possession rest
The rest of the field is pretty evenly matched. Anything can happen on any given day. People know it's do or die and they're going to play like every possession is the last possession of the season.
both honors obviously proud won
I'm just really proud of both of them and obviously they couldn't have won these honors without their teammates.
catalyst defense proud
The defense is the catalyst to our offense, so I was really proud of them for their effort.
athletic extremely hardest intensity key matching overly ready sharp state team work
Boise State is an extremely hard-working team. They're the hardest working team I think we've played. They're not overly big, but they're athletic and just work really hard. The key is matching their intensity because they're going to come out hard and play hard, that's a given. They do a lot of things well. We have to be ready to play and we have to be sharp and we have to match their intensity.
beginning creates defense focused frustrated hanging heads kept looking open people plan scoring stick struggled tried
At the beginning of the year, if we would have struggled like that, we would have had a lot of people hanging their heads and it would have just escalated. They just bounced back, kept looking for what was open and kept focused on the target. I wasn't too concerned. I tell them, 'If we're not scoring that's OK, we just need to get stops.' Defense creates some offense. I tried to stick with the plan and not get too frustrated with them.
