They matched up really well against us and took away a lot of our presence and options inside.
We are not a pressing team, we stay back and play basketball. Presses are so easy to break and that press is what ended up helping us. We must have gotten 15 to 20 points from that press.
We've had to make some adjustments. We don't go real deep, but the ones that are out there playing and rotating in are doing a great job.
Ironwood Ridge worked hard and caused some turnovers. Luckily we were able to hang tight and not let it get to us.
She was worried about her jacket during the time there and during the days following. She had talked to her mother about the jacket, worrying about it.
She sits down and plays defense. She has good timing on steals. She is able to contain people on the perimeter and gets a lot of five-seconds calls because of her pressure defense.
Guarding the opponent's top scorer is a lot of work, and we all know that.
We had to rotate a couple girls in because of foul trouble, and we don't have a real deep bench. (Chaparral) crashed the boards hard, and that's when we struggled the most, in the third quarter.
She's a great point guard. We're lucky to have her. She's a good decision maker out there.
We are giving up somewhere about 35 points a game. Even against some of our tougher opponents, we have been able to hold most of them to about 40 points.
