I got a text message from (ISU assistant) coach (Todd) Fitch that said 'Congratulations, today is the day you've been waiting for' and it really has been. I'm finally a part of the Cyclone family. I guess I was before, but now I really am part of the team. It's a great day.

Home-court advantage and a bye sounds good to me. It definitely feels good to win games this late in the season as opposed to when we started off rough.

I knew I had to come out in the second half and help my team out. I was feeling it, so I just kept shooting. I wasn't shy at all.
