best came game great guards job seen stepped
She just really came up big. I thought our guards did a great job of getting her the basketball, and she just really responded. I thought that was the best game that we've seen out of her. For a freshman, she really stepped up and did a great job.
choice committed stars step strengths team tried
They haven't tried to step out and be stars on their own. They've committed to complementing one another with their strengths and their weaknesses. Even Hannah, who made a choice to say, 'I want to give to this team in other ways, and I can't do it physically.' That selflessness, I think, has been prevalent through this group.

Alicia has really come into her own now in this part of the season. She played great for us in Italy and that was when she was with people she was very familiar with. With our new players, she had to get familiar and you can see now that familiarity is coming in and she's really stepped up her game. She's a special player.

allow anytime defensive expect felt happened loss percent shoot teams tonight
This was a disappointing loss for us. I felt like we were not who we are on the defensive end of the floor. We don't give up 76 points. We don't allow teams to shoot 52 percent and that's what happened tonight and anytime we allow that to happen, we can expect to get beat.

Boston College coming in is just the kind of game you just want to play. You have a Top 20-ranked team coming to your place and it's their first time ever in Tallahassee. There the team that will probably finish fifth or sixth in the conference and we just really want to lock in and go to work with that. We're not going to hold anything back, we're going to go after it and try to get this game with everything we've got.
altitude care chris deal denver difficult excited forward game great hard hard-work home job last louisiana neutral past players playing proud route tech time tough work
I am really proud of our players because there has been a lot of hard work on their part. The thing I'm really excited about is we will be playing on neutral courts. It was a tough route going up to Connecticut last season. We can deal with altitude but it's a lot more difficult to go out and play on a home court. Louisiana Tech is a great team. I know Chris Long well and he has done a great job as a first-year coach. It will be a tough one out there but it's something we will look forward to. We know we have to go out to Denver and take care of business. We can only take it one game at a time and we won't look past anything.
