She's been cleared to play full-out now. And, if the first two practices are any indication . . . She's just what the doctor ordered.

Just returning to the team was a huge lift for us.

I was pleased with how we played in the fourth quarter, because they've been a struggle for us.

I never wanted them to get comfortable. But, as it turned out, we weren't entirely comfortable, either.

We were in control of the game, pretty much from the outset. But, we couldn't put them away.

We turned it over too many times. Our offensive flow was off. We're just not with it.

We'll definitely have to play better as games go along. It's a long way to the state championship.

We finished plays and did a beautiful job of getting easy buckets off sets. We didn't take care of the ball late and at times played a little ugly. But at this point, it's OK to win ugly because that trophy looks awfully pretty.

It was a matter of finding our confidence. We played well in a lot of games but didn't win. In the last two weeks we found ourselves. It seemed like there was an aura around the team.
