I just felt their gas was gone. You could kind of see the wind in their sail go.

Carol started it. He's taken it to another level.

In every game we've won, there've been defensive runs where we've held opponents and been able to pull away.

It's been my philosophy to play a very challenging non conference schedule. It's been a little bit of a journey and baptism by fire, but it's been a big help.

If there was another minute left on the clock, it could have gone the other way. It was that kind of a game.

We knew (a dominant post player) was a missing ingredient the year before. She took a lot of pressure off our guards and really opened things up for them. Any team that's had success usually has great balance inside and out.

Jodie is a taller, stronger guard with great fundamentals and skills at her position. She has great court vision and can get the ball to her teammates to make them successful. Her size and strength will be an asset for us against some of the bigger teams we play. She also has a lot of energy and is a great communicator. She will be able to lead this team by not just her actions, but with her voice.

This is what you play for. This is why you wake up everyday, hoping for that championship, where I can't sleep at night thinking about it.

This is what we're all working to achieve. To get to the level they're at.

We say that if our team plays with intensity, we are a tough team. When we turned it on, we saw the results. We cut an 18-point deficit into an overtime game.
