definitely
I said this wasn't going to be easy, and it was definitely a roller-coaster.
ball turned
We turned the ball over and we couldn't make a shot. I thought we were a little impatient, and the ball didn't drop.
brings experience fortunate helping quick seniors three
Felicia brings different things to us. She is quick and athletic. She is up and down, but with more experience (that will change). She is very fortunate to have three seniors helping her.
rebound
We need to rebound the ball, obviously. Defensively, they are very physical.
hole
We can't get down in a hole like that.
ali clutch
Ali DeLuca really makes them go, and Kelsey has been really clutch for them.
advantage finally handled height offense played pressure ran relaxed tonight took turn
I think we finally took advantage of that (our height advantage). We finally just relaxed and played a little. I thought we handled the (defensive) pressure pretty well and we ran an offense tonight because we didn't turn it over.
care
I think we have to take care of the ball. In general, that has been our Achilles' heal.
best both expect floor kids playing prepared speed teams time totally
Our kids have been on the floor with them, so they know the speed of the game. But this is a totally different time of year. This is the time you want to be playing your best basketball. ... I expect both teams to be prepared because both of us have been there before.
That's what it is when we play Pennington -- a dogfight. When you get to the championship, it's usually a classic.
