I think it's a must win game. We want to reestablish a winning streak at home. Within the conference you can't afford to lose too many games.

We didn't get enough quality shots off inside. We were kind of relying on the three-pointer.

We wanted to try to set the tone on the defensive end and really take it to Albany early. We felt like we wanted to establish our presence here at home and I thought we did a great job of that early on.

The ankle is very touchy. We don't wanna rush anything.

It's day to day and when she's healthy she's going to play. That's not my call, the sports medicine staff is doing a great job with Rachel and it's just one of those things that physically take longer than others.

We had a good month. We had some really good wins, and we had some really tough losses.

I think Laura has played outstanding in Rachel's absence. She's been a consistent scoring threat, a great defender. She's been very aggressive on the offensive end, filling Rachel's shoes from a scoring standpoint.

I think this was a very big win. Vermont is a team that we always point to as a big game. We haven't been very successful against them. They're an outstanding program, and we wanted to start another home win streak and change the tide.

We're not going to do anything too different. We just want to try to win some games after a couple of tough losses.
