We played a full 40 minutes of sound basketball.
foul line
We got to the foul line a lot more.
beat early familiar game looking lose team
We are familiar with them, but it is a whole new season. When you lose to a team early on you want to get that game back. But I am not looking at it as revenge. We're just looking to beat them and advance.
ball job nice spreading turning
When we weren't turning the ball over, we were doing a nice job of spreading the floor.

We got the exact shots we wanted. That last shot by Brooke was the last play we worked on in practice today. We had three open threes at the end.
defended watch
We did watch (the tapes) to see how they defended us and what we did that was successful.
closing five four job last minutes nice second virginia
Virginia did a nice job closing us down in the second half. It was a hard-fought game, but I was disappointed the last four or five minutes in some of the turnovers.
aggressive hard passes slapping smarter talked

There's going to be a lot of slapping and reaching, some of it may be called or not be called, but we had to be more aggressive with the ball.

We just had a tough schedule. What we went through in our conference made us ready for whatever was going to come.

We certainly want to play in Boston. But right now, it's New Mexico.

ball foul game inside last played season successful time trying
We were very successful the last time we played of getting the ball inside and trying to get to the foul line. In this game we just didn't get to the foul line. All season when we've been successful we've done that very, very well.
