begin change decided difference handle press proved
We were not getting anything from our press to begin with, so I decided to change it up and to see if they could handle that. It proved to be the difference I believe.
affect against effort five hard last learned losses practice six team total worked year
We learned from last year. Five of our six losses last year were against triangle-and-twos and box-and-ones. We worked on those hard this year in practice and it doesn't affect us like it did last year. It was a total team effort by all of them.
good happened offense stepped
It was part of our offense and she happened to get a good look at it. They were concentrating more on Katie. She stepped up and made a big shot.
fun girls last possible practice realize worked
It worked for the most part last year, so we will keep it the same. We will do the same things. We will practice some up there and let the girls have as much fun as possible yet also have them realize what they are up there for.
clock five gonna passes shoot shot starters threat violation
They can shoot the basketball. It's all five starters too and they are gonna shoot it. There would be no threat of the shot clock violation if we had one with this team. They will make two-three passes then shoot it.
good somebody stepped year
That is why we are a team. All year if somebody didn't have a good game, somebody else stepped up.
moving
That is what got us moving and got us the momentum.
game good last offense played
We didn't do anything different this game than last time. We just executed better on offense and played real good defense.
expect free girls hard minutes practice work
We work hard on our free throws. We end each practice with 10-15 minutes of free throws. I expect our girls to make the free throws. It is all about confidence.
experience game playing ready situations time year
They got a lot of playing time and experience this year and that got them ready for game situations like this. They were big.
ball complete dish drive girl great shoot
The Burt girl is a great ball player. She can shoot the three, she can drive and she can dish off. She is a complete player.
adjusted box came played playing quarter took won
I thought we played real well. They came out in a box on us and it took us a quarter to get adjusted to it, but once we did, we started playing well. Once again, we won with our defense.
coach deserves gets honors katie praise special work
Katie is a special player. She deserves everything she gets in praise and honors because of all of the work she has put in, not just this year, but in her career. It is an honor to coach her. I have been blessed.
benefit everybody hard knew realize
It is hard to go undefeated, so we could benefit from it. Having the No. 1 ranking made everybody play us harder. We knew that, but now we realize it.
