We're just going to go down there and put all our effort into that first game. We know that whoever we get in the second round is going to be good, so there's no sense in looking too far ahead.

She had a rhythm look and knocked it down.

She came in and played real physical and gave us a real boost. She was just what we needed.

I give St. Xavier credit for not quitting. They hit the tough shots at the end.

I thought there was a lot of balance out there. When we subbed, we subbed with quality and those girls played well out there.

I think we'll get a chance to prove enough when the tournament rolls around. It's that time of year.

I think we're pretty focused. We've got momentum going in and I like out match-ups. We've been in enough tournaments and big games, so they know it's going to cost you to look past anyone.

Rocky has three posts that are good. They can take you off the dribble and get to the basket. We just want to play well and get in a rhythm and get our timing down.

I was really happy with the way we played offensively. We knew they changed defenses and they did that. We hit those big shots against the zone and forced them to play a little more man.

We had four post players score in double figures and that just shows that we're playing our game and playing unselfishly.

We got off to a good start, getting the shots we wanted, but they were just a little nervous. That happens, but I saw a lot of good things tonight. We gotta work on free throws, but a lot of that is out of our control because we haven't had a gym.

We wanted to get the ball to posts against their zone. Defensively, we played great all game. We got on the boards and stayed disciplined all game.

When you play a Division I team you want to play them when you're good.

There's not a lot of teams that have that kind of firepower coming off the bench. She does what she does. She did that last year. She's instant offense and she's a game changer.

The second half went real well offensively. We moved the ball around their zone and got some rhythm jump shots. I thought we turned down too many open jumpers in the first half.

Decude that there is always a way, and you'll find that there is.

They're playing with a lot of confidence right now. They're very athletic and very patient on offense.

It's just two road wins. We're awfully happy with the way we played defense, boxed out and held (Westminster and L-C State) to one shot.

It just looked to me that it was fun to be out there. We're pushing the ball around and making the extra pass and that's leading to open shots. We're going in the right direction.

I like our seed and who's on our side of the bracket. We to handle the changing defenses and I think we'll be alright.
