Melissa Richardson Quotations

We started the season slow, but our intensity and determination have really improved. Once we started winning some games we got our confidence back. Now we know we can do it.

Usually hitting shots gets everyone else involved and gives us momentum. It's big for our team for at least one person to come out hitting shots.

She's definitely hard to guard. You don't want to let her get any easy ones.

I don't think anyone thinks we played well. We definitely dodged a bullet.

Our team has always thought we were going to do as well as we did. We set our goals high. We had winning league and going to state on our goal sheet. So despite what everyone else thought, we thought we could.

We came out really pumped. We had a tough game last year and wanted (to avenge it).

We came out and played with our hearts. We learned that we can't be scared in the last 10 minutes.

We call her Amanda Long-Arms. We hate practicing against her, because she's got such long arms.

It's a good game to look back on. When we talk about it, it's, 'Remember what happened. Don't let it happen again.

That's amazing. I don't think anyone's had a game like that, not on our team.

I didn't have to guard her, but our posts worked hard. Once she gets it, there's nothing you can do to stop it.
