We put the ball in play well today.
I do want to credit the girls for playing great defense. Our achilles heel was not being able to handle the press at the end of the game and not getting the ball handling we needed to get.
It was a lot harder than that. That was a tough ball game. Some of our kids stepped up and hit some big free throws at the end.
We played some really good football in the first half. For the last 20 minutes, it was like the siege of the Alamo, but we defended really well.
All year we've focused on rebounding. We try to really hit the boards, defend, take care of the ball and make our free throws. Every time we've done those four things, we've been pretty successful.
We're getting her the ball much better than we did at the beginning of the year. We're doing a better job at getting her the ball in positions where she is more able to score. Kate is a very strong low-post player. She's six-foot and solid.
Most teams do that to us, but our girls do a good job getting position. We can get the ball in there and we made enough outside shots.
