Amanda Simmons Quotations

I was trying to keep calm. Everybody was making noise in the background and I tried not to let it bother me. Each shot was off to the left.

It felt good but we knew they had some good shooters and would come back. They came out and obviously changed their defense in the second half because we couldn't get the ball near the basket. I was sort of waiting for them to come back.

We came out strong in the first quarter. We played well.

What we said was to forget that last game. Everything we did that night was uncharacteristic of our team and the way we play. We just wanted to come out and play the way we know we can play.

Everything just started to slowly go wrong. After halftime, the lead went back and forth. Our defense didn't really step up. I don't think we were attacking enough in the second half.
