We were very undisciplined in the first half. I wasn't happy with how we closed the first quarter but that little run gave us some daylight.

From my own standpoint, I'm going to go up whether we win or we don't. But, I think this would be a great win for all of the people who had paid their dues.

The second we played much better. I don't know if we wore them down or what, but we were converting on our offensive trips.

I just thought every year you were going to go to the state tournament, as if there weren't other teams out there that also want to go.

It just took too much energy. It's so hot in this gym that we just couldn't do that for 32 minutes.

She (Perry) did have a nice free-throw shooting night. Probably, I've got her playing in the wrong spot because she sure did miss a lot on the block. Early on, we really did try to establish inside but it just didn't happen. But we did a nice job defensively, and that turned the game around.

She is a very talented basketball player and I don't have a problem with her taking that many shots because in this game it won't go unless you throw it up there, but we just need to make sure when we have a good shot and when we don't.

We think we've got a pretty good team. Until you beat a team like that, and recognition comes, you don't really get the recognition.

I think our team is going to show up. I know that's the pat answer, but we're not content. I didn't get that impression at practice.
