Mary Psenda Quotations

She was hurt. And she probably scored the five biggest points of the game.

She's furious with me right now. But I have to think about what's best for this team and look ahead to the playoffs.

She had zero turnovers, and she slowed the ball down and ran the offense when we needed it.

Megan came out and hit two 3s in the first quarter.

We've been the walking wounded since the beginning of the season.

I think part of it was that she was trying to create for her teammates. Yeah, she's a scorer and that's what she does, but you can't fault a kid for trying to be unselfish.

We played strong defense. We used some full-court pressure. And we did a good job of rotating (to help).

We need to stop the fast break. They're not gun-shy at all. We need to get up on them.

We shouldn't be. (Garcia) just takes so much pressure off everybody. She completes those other guards.

When you hit free throws, it's always a plus.

We just need to take care of (today), and let the chips fall where they may.

We don't want a relapse of Friday night. We could clinch a good position for the playoffs.

Everybody just started chucking the ball away. We practice these situations every day every day, we practice these situations.

Cortez is capable of a lot more than what they showed us. And we're facing the possibility of playing minus Kat (Garcia).

Cushing will take it at you. That's what makes her valuable to us.

As far as the injuries are concerned, we're about as good as we're going to get.

They've been with me since the beginning since the very beginning. They're very special.

They got tired. I used everybody I had, and I was using all my timeouts, too.

At least we got byes. So that's good.

It's hard to say. I want to say Megan is better, but they have two different styles of play, so it's hard to compare.

It should be a good game. We need to do the stuff that's expected in a game at this level of the State Tournament.

It's playoff time. It's time to step up. We're excited to play.

They (Central) are a tough team; they're pretty strong.

They weren't going to stop. They're going to keep coming at you. Once league starts, you have to bring your A-game every time out because on any given night you can get beat. We have a tough league, because everyone fights, and they fought us to the end.

They hit. It was a good shooting night.

Individually, nobody really had a great game; we worked together. We sacrificed everything for each other, and that's what teams do.

(CHSAA) gives a lot of points for the Durango/Cortez rivalry. It doesn't matter how good the teams are, it's hard to play in front of that many people.

If I could give a game ball, Haley would've gotten it (Friday night). She took a huge foul in the first quarter, and she came back and played through it.
