Ashley Watkins Quotations

No one really had to say anything when we got down because there's an understanding. There's a tradition, and it continues.

We didn't come all this way for nothing. We weren't going down without a fight. We got on the boards, played good defense and Raven stepped up. She played like a senior.

North's got two players that are hard to guard man-to-man, so we got in that zone. It was working, so we stayed there.

It means a lot because a lot of people, for a couple of years, I don't think I was even recognized as one of the top-10 best in the county. To be recognized as MVP shows I did work hard this summer to push my game.

Not every game's gonna be our best, but luckily we stuck with it and pulled it out in the end. You just gotta stay positive and have faith in yourself and your shot and hope eventually the shots that you take will fall.

In my eyes, we blew this game. We never gave up, but in the end somebody's got to lose.

Honestly, I just couldn't get anything going the last two games. I just wanted to be patient and let the game come to me, and it came to me. If I had to take every shot tonight, well, I would've taken every shot.

All I was thinking was that this game wasn't slipping through our fingers.
