June Daugherty Played Quotations

For three halves, we played some really good basketball. We had a really nice taste of the NCAA tournament, and now the key is: Do you want to come back and make some noise?

We've talked to our team a little bit about it, not necessarily the size of it. They've played in big arenas, but because of the baseline aspect of the coaching box. I'll be honest. I think it is something until you get out there in practice and actually coach and play on that floor, I don't know how we're going to feel.

We played very well for both halves and we controlled our rebounding. This was a big win for this program and a real testimony of what this team is all about.

They played an incredible game. It was tough for us to find answers. Their inside game with Smith and Newlin was exceptional. And here comes Wiggins. She's that good. She's a very special All-American. ... She put on a Superman cape today.

I'm just so proud and happy. This is why we play the preseason we play. We had success in the preseason and these guys came ready to play. Focus has been awesome, hats off to the seniors; the whole team deserves this -- but especially the seniors. This is a great win, and they all played like it too.
