Mostly, it was just a matter of giving too many free passes. You can't give that team, in particular, that many free passes, because they'll make you pay.
Foul trouble killed us. We didn't get to do what we wanted to do. We wanted to pressure them, but that was taken out by the foul trouble. We settled into a zone defense and they shot the ball over us. You have to give Morton credit. They got the good looks and knocked down the shots.
We played great team basketball. This was an opportunity to play everyone and look at a lot of different combinations. I'm pleased with how the kids played coming off the bench. They did a really good job.
We played good D and that's one thing we're really trying to improve on and have in the last couple of games.
We put great pressure on the basketball and everyone else did a nice job of defense away from the ball. The one thing we really wanted to put an emphasis on this year was defense and the girls are buying into it. We didn't shoot the ball well, but we played great defense.
It was one of those days where we hit the ball where they weren't. If we continue to make plays, we'll continue to be successful.
We are happy. We're at the point where we are taking it one game at a time. I think the girls have really got some confidence rolling; they are really playing as a team. The effort is always there every night. That's something I can't complain about.
The girls kept on working and they deserve the credit for the success we've had this season. I'm proud of everyone who stuck it out. The girls worked hard all season and I can't say enough of how proud I am of them.
That was kind of a rough way to start the first inning.
We felt like we gave this one away. The one thing about this group now is they're battling. They did a great job of doing that, but we didn't do the job on the defensive end.
