They beat us in overtime and she was the reason why. She scored back-to-the-basket, pivoting, face-up, hitting 15-footers and we played behind her and fronted her and doubled her and it didn't matter. She earned my respect that day.

We made a decision to go with the basics. Regardless of the level of football -- college, high school, the NFL -- blocking and tackling gets it done. We decided to focus on the basics and parlay that into everything else.
