ball expect flat game gave playing team win
They're a different team at home, but we gave them the game. We flat out stunk. I don't know how you can expect to win a ball game playing like we did.
ball basket percent shot worst year
Stout outplayed us. You have to give them credit. We shot 37 percent (from the field), which was the worst we shot all year and they shot 41 percent. You have to put the ball in the basket and you can't give up 84 points.

I think it helped us out a lot when Knapp got in foul trouble. She's one heck of a ball player.
ball defend keys shot turn win
The keys for us are to be able to defend and rebound. And we can't turn the ball over. If we can do that, we'll have a shot to win the game.

We got off to an early start and withstood their little comeback.
allen matter players reminds teams
She reminds me so much of Allen Iverson. Cassandra is one of those players who no matter what teams try, is not going to back down from a challenge.
ask floor left
She left everything on the floor and that is all we can ask of our players, to compete.
hang heads nice scheme season tough wins youthful
When you look at everything in the scheme of things, 20 wins is nice because we have a very youthful team. It's always tough to see your season end, but we don't have anything to hang our heads about.
