apologize family four state students women
It was foolish. It was selfish. I'd like to apologize to the four women involved. I'd like to apologize to the students on campus. I'd like to apologize to my coaches, my teammates, my family and the state of Connecticut.

It was slippery out there. I had to go to the trusty grip shoes.

It was probably the toughest game I've ever played in.
best certain dream growing hard juggle since six
It was a real juggle back and forth. At a certain point, I didn't feel like (staying) was best for me. Growing up, since you're six years old, this is your dream and it's hard to say no.

It was a rough year. There were a lot of ups and downs. But I felt we dealt with it pretty well. There's a lot of maturity on this team.

It's a game we need to win. We're not focusing on winning the Big East, the Big East standings, the NCAA standings, whatever. They beat us the first time, so we have to get this win.

This is what you work for all year, to get a good seed. We're where we want to be.

They're really good at running their stuff and getting open shots, so we really just need to get up in them and force them to be really athletic and make sure they can't run their plays the way they want.

They're giving me lanes, giving me shots to take. So why not take them? I think our team can accept any challenge a team throws at us.
defense
That's something that can't happen. Basically, our defense has been slipping.
momentum
It's not going to be easy. It's going to be a big gut-check for us. But we've got some momentum going in and we've got some confidence. I think we'll be fine.
whatever
They can say whatever they got to say. That's nothing.
entire force looked offense run
They looked out of rhythm. They had to run all the way through their entire offense and then force up a shot.
