battle both came few game good job needed night plays point shooting shots tough
I think it had to be a little frustrating for them. But you have to give us some credit, too. We did a good job on defense, especially down the stretch. It was a tough shooting night for both of us. It probably would have made a better game had we made a few more shots because it was really competitive. It just came down to who made the plays when they needed to make them. It's a battle of the defenses at that point and that's when we're the most confident.
academic everybody help level supporting
Here, it's more that you have everybody supporting you. Everybody's going to be there. Your teammates, your coaches, your academic advisers, everybody is doing things to help you, and when you get at the professional level you have to do everything to help yourself.
bench finally happy knocking nicole second talking
I was talking to Ann (Strother) on the bench in the second half, and we were just really happy with her finally being able to come out and just play the way we know Nicole can play. She was real poised, knocking in shots, making the right passes, and defensively she was solid.
concluded final four stretch
If we get to the Final Four (April 2-4 in Boston), we will have concluded our four-year stretch very well.
allow basically becomes coach focus mind state tired
Basically the same thing that coach told me all the time, tired is a state of mind. If you allow yourself to become tired, your mind becomes tired and you don't focus as much as you need to.

I had it in the back of my mind before it started to do everything in my power to contain her.
generation gotten last next pull ready understanding understood year
I don't think we understood that last year, but this year we've gotten better at understanding that we need to pull the next generation along. Next year, they're not going to have any seniors. They have to be ready to do the same things we're doing. Then they'll understand why we're always on them. When it's their turn, they'll be ready.
ball bizarre good job matter playing sticking throwing
He is doing a good job of sticking with us no matter what we are going through and no matter if we are playing bizarre and throwing the ball all over the floor. He is there to let us know we are going to win this game.
basketball career feeling game line opportunity
Never in my basketball career have I had the opportunity that I just had with the ball in my hands, with the game on the line and to be able to make the shot. There is no better feeling in the world.
capable coach continue decision overcome prove talents work
Obviously, it's a decision that Coach made and it's something that she's just going to have to continue to have to work through. If she's able to overcome this and show her talents and show what she's capable of and prove herself, then that's going to say a lot about her. And I think she will.
carried lost obviously regular
Obviously that's what we set out to do after we lost the regular season. That's what has carried us through this. We just have to have the same thing going into tomorrow.
boston diana final four leave legacy national pioneer resentment successful toward winning
Obviously, that's something that has been in the back of our minds. There is no resentment toward Diana at all. She was an unbelievable pioneer in women's basketball. We also want to leave our legacy with a successful career. It wouldn't end any better way than us being in Boston at the Final Four and winning the national championship.
court defending great history last obviously practice step toward tradition work
Obviously that is what you want to do here, because Connecticut has a great tradition and a great history over the last 15 years. You are defending that every day when you step out on the practice court or step out there for a game. We all try to work toward getting it back and defending it. That is what we try to do.
