best half played
That was probably the best first half we played all season.
battle both early improved mexico played quite teams
We played really early in the season, so I think both teams will look a lot better. We have improved a whole lot, and I know New Mexico has as well. It's going to be quite a battle out there.
celebrate euphoria games granted played proud single special taking team
I'm really proud of this team and what we've accomplished. Securing a Big 12 championship with games yet to be played is a pretty special accomplishment and we're not taking it for granted for one single second. We're just not going to celebrate it with all the euphoria yet, because there's so much out there still that we can do.
iowa kept minutes played points state
Iowa State played fantastic. When we were up by 10 points (with 6 1/2 minutes to play), Iowa State could have said 'we're done,' but they kept fighting.
best care consistent lights played remarkable taken truly
The thing that's truly been remarkable is that there hasn't been a swoon. She's been consistent with her scoring, consistent with her rebounding, she's taken care of the basketball, and she's played at her best when the lights are the brightest.
game
Without Erin's three-point shots, we're not even in the game in the first half.
afraid aware job number people strength
You have to be at least aware of, if not afraid of, all the pieces. All year, our strength has been the number of people who can get the job done.
blow easier good looks score
We got some good looks and converted. Sometimes that's easier said than done, and we were able to blow the score up.
tough
Brooke made some tough, tough shots. That 14-of-16 did not come easy.
energy
We had to expend so much energy just to get back into the game, and we could never get over that hump.
care gotta rise tough
I don't know what it is, and I don't really care what it is. It doesn't matter. It's gotta stop. You've got to be tough enough to rise up and make a play.
consistency display history looked point remarkable throughout
I don't know that any of us could have ever looked at any 18-year-old kid, at any point in the history of this game, and thought that they could display the consistency that she has displayed throughout this season. That, to me, is a remarkable thing.
ball free game kinds loose lose maybe rebound tough
Maybe you lose a game by a bucket, a free throw, a rebound or a loose ball there are all kinds of things working up to the loss. She just made a tough shot.
graduation guard kid looking point
If we know we've got one graduating, we're looking for another one. It's like getting a point guard or a shooter. It's a kid with an edge. You have to have some of that.
