I thought we had a chance. You hold a team to 36 percent shooting, you rebound with them, you get more free throws ... the difference in the game might be the stretch where we turned the ball over.

We're disappointed in the loss. But we're encouraged by how hard we battled and look forward to the when the Flames come to the coliseum.

That stretch was critical, because I thought we had played great but just couldn't make a shot. When you have Tiffany Rodd and Ashley Fann open for threes as many times as they were, you're just waiting for the scoreboard to light up like a pinball machine. But the shots weren't falling.

We expected a tough challenge today. The difference in the game at Radford was that we out-rebounded them by 14 and we hit eight out of 14 three's. So we figured that with the fact they had a week to practice basically getting ready they were going to do a good job challenging us at the 3-point line and be a little tougher on the boards. That was obviously the difference in the game.

He couldn't jump either and he did all right for himself. Fann kind of has a little bit of that game.

She's going to make her mark here on campus in other ways than just basketball.

We'll just keep pushing on because we don't have any other choice.

If you wanted a defensive game and that's what you like, that's what you got tonight. I'm not sure that either team is really happy with the way they shot tonight, but I certainly like the way we defended tonight.
