ashley ball freshman guard lack quick replace threw tried
We tried to get a quick score. Ashley Powell thought she could take it all the way and she got a charge. Then we put the other freshman guard in (to replace Owens) and she threw the ball away. It was not from lack of effort, it was just lack of experience.
aggressive bother earlier gave loose played tied tried unless year
We played them earlier in the year and we were tied at 20 by the half. We played that zone, but we gave up a lot of penetration. We can see that it did bother them, so we just tried to tighten it up and don't go out on their non-shooters. You can't do that unless you rebound. I thought that was the key. We were very aggressive getting some loose balls.

Boy, this is too early for a team timeout.

This is something to build on. We feel now we can play with some of the top teams. This tournament gave us a little pride to see that maybe we can get to the next level.
conference qualify
As a competitor, you don't want to qualify for your conference tournament, because, not only did you lose, but someone else also lost, which is why you got in. You really want to get in by winning.
die hit shoot
You've got to shoot it. You have to live and die by your shooters. They packed it in and made us shoot from the perimeter. We just didn't hit our shots.

You're not going to beat a team like Rutgers shooting like that.
aggressive basketball beat breaks game miss needed pinch pray shoot top zone
I don't know what to say. We really wanted to pinch off their penetration. We thought our 2-3 zone was really going to make them shoot over the top of us and just pray they miss some of them. We were very aggressive going after the basketball and we got some breaks. And that's what we needed. We needed all the breaks in this game to beat Rutgers and we got 'em.
