We made some key plays defensively in the second half. We got our hands on some balls, got some important stops and got a little out of everybody.

North Dakota and St. Cloud State can both legitimately think about a national championship. And Duluth is not far behind.

We don't go in thinking we're going to shut her down. We want to make her defend, especially if she's trying to stay out of foul trouble.

They're a 31-0 team with a home crowd that's second to none. We'll have to deal with that, but I think we're capable.
