Lori Crunk Quotations

She could have scored a lot more points if she wanted to. But she uses her teammates and gets them the ball, even if it took them awhile to get ready for it.

She just wasn't ready. Although I thought she was moving better on it today. We were hoping that we could get through this one today and maybe she can play on Saturday.

I would think that being up here three times in the last four years now would be an advantage because our girls know what to expect. Our girls have had success in this building. Michelle (Mabry) shot the ball very well here last year and so this is also an advantage.

I think whichever team executes the best on both ends of the floor and limits their turnovers will probably win the basketball game. Win or lose it's been a great season. But hopefully we can continue playing for a little while longer.

We were a little nervous coming out and it showed in our shooting. But these girls don't panic when we're down and we always manage to find a way to work through it.

We knew it wouldn't be like last time. We knew that East would be ready to play and that we would have to play well. We just kept working and working all night, everybody did, and we were able to get the job done.

We've got to be able to rebound in order to get our transition game going, so that is a big key and like any game, the team that executes and doesn't turn the ball over much is usually the one that comes out on top.

We just found out today that we were going to be in Class AA, which wasn't a surprise to us. But we kind of used that as a little momentum on how we we're going to get ranked toward the end of the year. That kind of kept the girls pumped up.

We got rattled in the beginning and it took us a while to realize that we could compete.

That first quarter really hurt us. I think we might have been intimated with their inside game and I think that bothered us. Seven points is hard to make up against that good of a team.

Their size is a concern and they are obviously a very skilled basketball team. You don't get to the state tournament and not be an excellent team. We haven't played a lot of zone defense this year but it's something we worked on this week.

I'm not sure if it was the drive or just the fact that we had beaten them handily both times we played but I thought the girls came out real flat. I wasn't real happy with the way our starters played.

I'm not real happy with the way we played. I don't think the girls are, either, because they weren't real excited at the end. I don't think we played as well as we thought we could have.

I knew in the locker room that we looked kind of dead and flat and I was worried when we came out. This is a real rowdy group and they were very quiet before the game. I was happy with the way we came back in the second half and that we found a way to win the game.

I'm out of quotes. I don't know what else to say about 'T.' I'm fresh out.

I'm so proud of what they accomplished out there. They're a very well-coached team out there. This is not going to be an easy game. We have to prepare, and we have to play well.

I haven't actually seen it because every time I've been around it's been wrapped. I do know there was some discoloration and swelling.

I didn't think we played very well defensively the first half. The second half was the time we played really hard and started boxing out.
