E. Hicks Offense Quotations

We knew they were going to have great defensive pressure. I think they got us out of our offense a little bit. So I think in those situations we need to stay poised and execute our offense a little bit better. I think that's what we are going to work on as we continue Pac-10s.

When he first came to the team, he caught on to our offense real quick. It usually takes a couple of months, but it only took him a couple of weeks. I knew he was going to be a good player right there.

With Sylvia back in the lineup, that gives them a lot of looks inside so sometimes you have to adjust on a shot. We didn't really respond as well as we would have liked to. They brought the energy and they got their offense flowing.

You feel like a second-class citizen when you have the No. 1 offense and the No. 32 defense year in and year out.

The bottom line is that Bear River changed its offense the second half of the season. They started planting Juric in the block. Earlier in the season when we beat them, she was floating around on the outside and we were thrilled. Now she plays down on the block and we didn't have an answer.

The offense ? we're real excited about our prospects. We'll be even better on offense next year.
