Vivian Stringer Team Quotations

There is no question that Villanova is the team we most dread to play. I am so grateful to get that game over.

There is no question that Villanova is the team that we most dread to play. I'm glad we were able to be victorious, because they really wear you out.

To date, yeah, we probably are. We've done a lot work on zones in the last week and a half, anticipating that everybody is going to play zone, but the team that we feared most was Marquette. I like zone a lot as a coach, but my team doesn't seem to like zones.

I thought West Virginia really deserved this win. I think their team clearly wanted it more. They worked hard from the beginning. I think they played with a great deal of heart and determination.

I'm so grateful to get that game over. I think the team would rather play Duke, Connecticut and Tennessee all back-to-back or in one week than Villanova. I took 600 milligrams of Motrin before the game and the headache is still coming through.

I would much rather meet them and deal with them now. That's the way I feel about it. The only thing it does for me is like, bring 'em on. I don't really care. And so if my team takes that same attitude, I don't care who we play and when we play.

Every team we play is a rivalry in a sense, because you try to win every game. That's what it's all about. Who knows who came up with this rivalry?

You try to help the team to see the big picture. I really welcome the day when I have a team that is on automatic pilot and they just feed off of it, and as soon as the ball goes up they just know. They just play.

It was great to see our team execute. We really moved the ball, we got good shots and we were looking for each other. It was one of the better games I've seen in a long time, and it can't come at a better time than now.

It was great to see our team execute, move the ball, take great shots, play defense, it was nice to see them play so free. It was one of the better games I've seen in a long time and it comes at no better time than now.

The freshmen grew up a lot and we as a team grew up a lot. We learned how to win.
