I came here to win a gold. That's what I wanted. But am I proud of our team? Yes.
I came here to win a gold medal. But am I proud of our team? Yes. We showed a lot of character after hitting rock bottom after the loss to Sweden. No one expected to be playing for the bronze.
Right now, while I'm playing, no. I want to make it to the final and win a gold. But for the sport, yeah, I would love to see it.
I've never played a consolation game in my life. We expected to be playing for a gold medal.
I think Americans expect gold. You're idolized when you win a gold medal. We really put our lives on hold for this long. We've got a lot inside of us right now.
We know this is sort of their gold-medal game. If they beat us, they'll have a higher medal than they've ever had. ... We work on focus in sports psych, so this is the time we need it.
