I certainly want to put us in a position to go into the Horizon League tournament strong.
You have to be in their face and can't give them uncontested 3s.
Granted, we are not happy with the outcome right now. But to see the improvement offensively for us, to see some of the players step up and get some experience out there, it is definitely going to help us in the long run.
I was especially pleased with our five turnovers in the second half after we gave it away too many times in the first half.
Our league on the women's side is just kooky right now. Anything can happen with our league, it is just a matter of having your team prepared, making sure they show up, and execute the things you ask them to do.
Just continue to improve our shooting, our execution in the half court and defensively get back to what we used to do a little better and that is to get some stops on the perimeter.
We've also got a chip on our shoulder, because all our hard work in practice still hasn't produced wins. We can't really worry about our opponents, we need to focus on ourselves first.
Today, we put ourselves in position to win. I'm happy we were playing hard.
This is not going to be any X and O's battle on Thursday. This game is about two teams very hungry for a victory.
We wanted to crowd her, which we did. She did get some easy looks at the end. Those are mental breakdowns.
