When we got up we started controlling the ball. They started attacking us and we protected the ball tonight.

Coming into the game we know that they like to shoot with their right hand. We did a great job making them use their left and they started to get tired and rush shots.

A significant key in this game was the offensive boards. They had 12 we had 11 but those 12 that they had were huge. They had a lot of second shots from those and that really hurt us.

They're not a fluke. They are a 7-1 team for a reason. We have a lot of ladies that were on the bench during the championship years and now they know what it's like to be on the floor and now it's their turn to take over.

The first half we came out sluggish. We shot 22 percent in the first half.

They gave us a scare. We are still maturing. We had four turnovers in a row in the fourth quarter. I told the girls we aren't going to win the conference, but we have to keep control of the ball and we can't do that especially in the playoffs because tonight seemed like a playoff-atmosphere game.

We missed some key bunnies when we needed them. We couldn't finish them off.

We were not doing anything different. We just started making the right pass and we rebounded strong.

It's huge. We were playing a team that isn't doing well in the conference and who came out ready to play, The ball wasn't falling but this team did not quit. They don't know what that word means.
