career crazy dog fast games playing senior
As a senior it's crazy how fast the games and your career go by. We're playing every game like it's our last, so this one will be a dog fight. We're not going to give up.

I think we've grown playing together and understanding each other. It's definitely helped us out and it shows in our record.
against excited lower ohio playing seed watching whether
After watching them play so well against Ohio State, we're not any more excited (to play a lower seed). Whether we're playing a No. 8 seed or a No. 1, it doesn't make a difference.
few games last past playing
For the past few games we've been playing like it's our last game. This isn't going to be any different.
amazing expecting good great kim knack knowing knows obviously playing throw
How many assists do I have, 600 or something? I think 590 were to her. I think Kim and I have a very good playing relationship. We have a knack for knowing where each other will be. She knows I'm going to try to throw her the ball. She's expecting them from me. She's an amazing cutter and obviously a great shooter.
believing character country gotten rest shows stuck stuff teams thank
Thank you for believing in us when the rest of the country didn't. We did it together, we stuck together, we got through stuff that teams would have never gotten through, and I think that shows what kind of character we have.
ask change exceeded pressure
It doesn't put too much pressure on us. We don't have to win. We've already exceeded everyone's expectations. It doesn't change how we go out. We'll just go out and play 40 minutes. That's all you can really ask of each other.
against chance good guards point possible surreal until
I think I'm still in shock. It's a little surreal right now. I'm just so excited. I thought it was a possible chance that I would go early, but I was up against some other very good point guards in Nikki Blue, Megan Duffy, Erin Grant. So you really don't know until your name's called.
surreal
I'm still in shock. It's a little surreal right now.
ball care cause moving press
We need to take care of the ball. From what we've seen, their press can cause a lot of turnovers. We need to take care of the ball and keep moving it around.
confidence defensive knew looks offense open ran stops
We had confidence in that we knew we would get open looks if we ran our offense right. We just had to make some defensive stops and we did that.
academy awards excited
We were so excited backstage. Yeah, it did feel kind of like Academy Awards night.
close familiar highest played seed staying
Getting a 5 seed is awesome, the highest seed we've ever had, and we're staying close to home. We've played there before (in November), so we're a little familiar with it, and that should be in our favor.
contribute excited learn team
I am so excited I am going to a team that I can contribute to and learn from.
