We were so excited just to get the opportunity, so that was kind of our driving force. We were just going to play the best we could - we were just lucky to be there - and I think we just played well as a team and that was the difference.

It was a chance for a trophy and not go away empty-handed.

Everybody was throwing out everything that they had inside. We talked about what we needed to work on as a team. We were going to work on those things next year.

We didn't really expect the bid to come. It was just a great opportunity and second chance for us to build on what we had talked about in that locker room.

I'm nervous, but it's more excitement than nerves. I'm looking forward to the game.

We had to reflect on what went wrong.

As a team we never give up. We made that run at the end. The excitement was there. We had the momentum. We did the best that we could. It just didn't work out for us.

We didn't expect it. But it's great to get a second chance to build on what we talked about.

We're all just so excited and we just wanting to make it to the Final Four. That's one banner that we have missing in our gym and that's one thing we really want to accomplish this year and I think we have the team to do it.
