This was a great win. The monkey is off our back. Now we can step forward and do the things that we need to do.
We were 100 percent convinced she could step in. She has really developed her range. She's not that big, but she's strong, and she can play inside and out.
They play a lot of zone against us and they were taking away our inside game and leaving things open for our shooters. Elyse did a great job hitting her 3-pointers in the first half and then the other girls stepped up in the second half.
We did what we needed to do. It was great to see some of our bench step up. They took the inside away and it's really just a matter of learning how to respond to what teams take away.
When the game is on the line or the game is tight, she's a person who will step up and not be afraid to score or make something happen. It's something you can't teach. It's an innate thing, and she definitely possesses that.
We needed a game like this where we had to step up at the end. I'm upset we didn't play well, but it was good for us to be in this kind of situation.
I guess I better let her step out a little more. That's bad coaching, not putting her in the right place.
Were going to need our bench more than ever now, and we have some great players that can step up. We're not going to be as big, but we just need to keep fighting.
Willow has given us so many amazing moments in the last few games. We've needed her to step up and she's done that.
