Gordy Presnell Quotations

There were a couple things that kept her from starting. Mostly it was injuries. It was that and trying to get a rotation down. Sometimes we have a lull where we can't score, and it's nice to get a scorer in there. She's really as starter. We've had to shorten her game a little bit to get her in there, but she's a very good player.

She'll work her tail off and she'll get better. She's had some hard knocks this year and had some pretty easy times, too. Hopefully, she'll grow from that.

She's deserving of it. She had a pretty good year. We're happy for her because any award is really a team award.

They played behind Michelle, so we went to her.

She's a two-guard. And to her credit, she only had (59) turnovers. That's pretty good for a freshman coming into the WAC and playing as many minutes (29 per game) as she does.

She's had a really good season. It's really been a breakout season. She's battled injuries all season, but she's a pure shooter and she's made it a good year.

I told the team there's no way they're going to shoot like that the whole game and to keep their poise.

We fatigued a little bit and didn't execute. Against a team like that, we've got to play perfect basketball. You have to make free throws and can't have any unforced errors.

They turned it up a notch, and we just couldn't get there. Our kids played hard, but they're very talented. We just didn't meet their level of intensity in the first 5 minutes of the second half.

The first time I saw her play I could tell she's a player to help build around. I knew even before the first exhibition that she could shoot by watching her shoot at practice. She's really got a textbook shot, and it makes things easier.
