blossom diana glimpse hard might picks recover respect showing starting teammates turn works
She picks things up quickly. Diana is just starting to blossom and is only showing a glimpse of what she might turn out to be. Her teammates really respect her for how hard she works to recover from everything she has been through.
both central michigan shots stepped stretch teams
Both teams had their opportunities, but Central Michigan stepped up and made enough big shots down the stretch to win.
advantage good mistake teams time took
They took advantage of every mistake we made. That's what good teams do at this time in the year.
against bowling figure game played team
You play a game like we played against Bowling Green, and you think we're on the right track. I can't figure this team out. I just can't figure them out.
crystal generating guards point ranks senior solid team top trouble
And that's for a team that has had trouble generating a lot of points. Crystal has had a very solid senior year. I think she ranks with all of the top point guards in the league.
team
Anything that I've said to the team hasn't been effective. I've been mad, I've stomped, I've screamed, I've been encouraging and positive, and nothing matters.
against figure great half hard life players second sucked team trying
For the life of me, I'm at my wit's end trying to figure out how to get this team to play hard for 40 minutes. Against BG, we had a great first half and sucked the second half; against these guys, we sucked the first half and had a great second half, but not great enough. We've got a lot of players who just want to participate and don't want to compete.
bit chances convert couple loss played second team
I'm really at a bit of a loss with this team right now. I thought we played a tad better in the second half, but we don't need a tad better - you need to play a lot better. We had a couple chances to get back into the game, but we couldn't convert enough and get enough stops.
honestly hurt might ready
We were ready for the press. It might have hurt us once or twice, but I honestly think it was as much us as it was them.
bright expect game others played plays seniors somebody standing taking tells
Every game, there is a bright spot. Every game, somebody plays well. That's not taking anything away from Amanda. She played like you want your seniors to play. I expect all of them to play well, I don't want any bright spots. Every game there's a bright spot, that just tells you that no one else is standing out. I think she did what she should do, play hard. That's something that the others still have to learn.
point quite
You get to that point where you get back into the game, and you just don't have quite enough to make one more push.
amanda bench deal energy gave great home last played playing proud scoring trouble
I was proud of Amanda Davis. Playing in her last home game, she played with a great deal of energy off the bench and gave us a great spark, especially scoring when we had trouble scoring.
build fact gives hope player program ray struggle
I struggle with the fact that our program isn't what it once was. But there is something, or someone, who gives me a ray of hope that we have the player we need to build around and get back there.
against best game gave
I'd be disappointed if we didn't play our best game against them. I think we gave them everything we had.
