The girls never quit. We knew if we could get it down to 10 going into the final period that we would have a chance.

I think the team that plays in the opening round has a little advantage in the semifinal game. District play is a totally different atmosphere and it certainly took us awhile to adjust.

I told the girls before the game that starting off strong could be a key. I thought Mexico had a little advantage having won in this sectional last year and having all of their starters back.

We didn't do a very good job of moving and screening and we were stagnant out there. We contributed to our own problems. They did a good job isolating (Fugate) and she played a tremendous part in this game.
