foul head took
I think we got into her head a little during the first half, when she got into some foul trouble, and we kind of took her out of the game.
attack bit game head high matter maybe quality somebody stay team time
It's a game where it doesn't matter who it is, the team is going to be a quality team. Maybe there's a little bit of disappointment that it's not Denison, but also maybe you get away from the head game, too - 'oh, it's Denison.' Now it's somebody different, but at the same time you can't relax. You still have to stay at a high level, go out and attack them.
angles attempts build free gave goal hands hope move rather reaching stop talk throw time trying year
I don't know why we do that. That's one of the things we talk about before (every game). Our goal is to keep (opponents) at 10 free throw attempts or less, and we gave them 25 tonight. We've just got to move our feet, we've got got to stop reaching with our hands and we've got to take better angles - things that at this time of year you hope to be fine-tuning rather than trying to go back and build a foundation.
attitude happy talked trying win
One of the things we talked about is not this attitude we're not just happy to be there. We're going there for business, and we're trying to win some games.
built came early led nicole
Nicole came out and led us early and got some big baskets and built our confidence.
bounce definitely seems
She definitely seems to have the bounce back in her step.
chance experience seniors seven
More importantly, I wanted them (the players) to have a chance to get there and experience that. Seven seniors ... what a way to go out. What a way to go out.
defense good pressure
Our pressure defense was very strong. I thought our help-side defense was very good at times as well.
balance consistent defense good played players pleased seven turned
I thought we played very good, consistent defense throughout. I was also pleased with our decision-making as we only turned it over seven times. Our balance was very good as well as we had 11 different players score.
advice lend
Hopefully, the two of us, we can lend a little advice and a little experience.
group hopefully overwhelm situation time
Hopefully the situation doesn't overwhelm them though. Because a the same time it's still a game, and I think this group does well when they can relax.
easily fighting great kept kids mentally plugging position tent tough
We're mentally tough and we were not going to go away. We got down 10 and could have easily folded the tent on the big stage. The kids just kept fighting and plugging away and got us back into that thing. They put us in a great position at halftime.
behind coming five four hard kid legs minutes provide time year
You get to this time of year and one of the things we try to do is keep their legs fresh. When you know that you can go out there and go hard for three, four or five minutes . . . and then you're going to get a break, and that kid coming in behind you is going to provide a spark, it frees you up to do more.
against case confidence doctor last needed oak offense ordered red shoot shot struggled terms tonight turning week
We needed this. It was kind of what the doctor ordered because last week we struggled in terms of scoring. We put up 44 against Red Oak and 48 against LC, and our offense is better than that. It wasn't a case where we were turning it over, it was a case where we didn't shoot well, and tonight we shot it very, very well. We got some confidence back.
