Brenda Frese Game Quotations

It gives us a tremendous amount of confidence. You're not having to use that first 10, 20 minutes in the first half of the game to get used to each other's style. We already know from the tip that this game's going to be a track meet. Both teams love to score, and both teams love offense.

I thought we were extremely unselfish moving the ball. We attacked the glass very, very hard. I think it was just a really solid overall game by this team.

That's because of obviously how aggressive (the Tar Heels) play. They're in your shorts the entire game for 40 minutes.

It wasn't the prettiest game we've played to date. St. John's had a tremendous game plan, and they hit a lot of big shots.

It was a heck of a game on both ends. Not that they need to keep putting our coaches through this, but we really believe in ourselves. Obviously, both teams hate to lose, but we were able to stay focused and remain inspired.

I liked our poise down the stretch. We hit some big shots when we needed to, especially in a game where we were a little out of sync tonight.

All season long this team has played with a chip on their shoulder. They keep taking us for a heck of a ride. It was a tremendous game from both teams and the game plan was to hold North Carolina in the 70s.
