Getting the lead was important because we went into the locker room with some confidence. We had a pretty good run and we carried it over to the third quarter.

She likes to win. She came out a little bit nervous — it takes a quarter to settle down sometimes — but she's such a leader. The rest of the team feeds off her. When things don't go well for her, they usually don't go well for us.

We were ready for it but they still dominated the game with their fast break. They executed to perfection. As quick as my kids are they were running by us on the break.

I'll take heart over height any time.
