I think the expectations are higher, but they don't feel so much pressure. This whole year is different.

We know the next time we see West Jordan it is not going to be the same team. They're a good team, and we talked about that with our girls.

A week and a half in the gym is what happened to us.

It is so good to be outside. Playing in the gym is so different and it's going to take a while. Today was nice in that we're outside and some of my players who'd been struggling hit well and got some confidence back.

It makes a big difference to our team. It affects our energy as a team. We had a game where everyone was kind of quiet, and we just stayed even-keel the whole time. Even-keel isn't good enough, and we can always count on Koo to get us going.

We were worried about our chemistry, and we were reluctant to make changes because we were winning. But we wanted to put what we thought was the best team out on the field. We're just trying to put the team first, and the girls have accepted all of the changes really well.
