consistency kindness lack ongoing point rather
At this point of the season, you would rather not have to make these kind of moves. But as a coach, you find yourself making adjustments all year. Our lack of consistency has been an ongoing thing all year.
both ends floor plays points role score shows team win
It shows her role on this team is not just to score points for us. If she doesn't have 33 or 25, we're still going to win games. She makes big plays on both ends of the floor for us.
aggressive care lost ncaa points rebound team tournament win
That's not why we lost the game. We lost because the other team was more aggressive than us and we didn't take care of the boards. You can't win in the NCAA tournament when you don't rebound and give up points like we did.

Indiana gave us a good fight. They're twice as good as the last time we played them.

Each one of these individuals have different issues on why they have chosen to leave this program.
events everybody happened looking pinpoint step taking
Everybody is taking a step back and looking at the events that happened during the year. I don't think you can pinpoint it on one thing. It was many different things that kind of happened at once.

Nothing was broken. Her arm got twisted a little bit when a player fell on her hand.
fault full hope personal responsibility taking
I'm taking personal responsibility for what's going on but not full responsibility. It's never one person's fault 100 percent. You never hope it comes down to this. We do have to find out how we can do things better.
bench consistent floor jamie offensive player sitting threat
It's huge. We can't have Jamie sitting on the bench for very long. She is a consistent offensive player and threat on the floor and, obviously, one of our go-to players.

We just wanted to show 12,000 people what we were all about. That's hard work and second effort and just a lot of energy out there.
consistent might players
We might have to shorten our bench. Some players have been more consistent lately.
best future lauren luck wish
We wish Lauren and Brittney the best of luck in their future endeavors.
display percent shoot
This was a very disappointing display of basketball. When you shoot 31 percent and have 20 turnovers, you're not going to win, especially in March.
dug five hole knew offensive ourselves six time tough turn win
Five of our first six possessions were turnovers. We dug ourselves a hole very, very quickly. It was 10-0 before you knew it. But any time you turn it over 24 times and give up 18 offensive rebounds, it's going to be tough to win on another team's floor.
