entire felt great
I felt like we got great play out of our entire team.
engage minds
We've got to play better. We've got to engage our minds and play more with our minds and our spirits.
eye frame kids positive
We just have to have a positive frame of mind, which I think our kids have, we have to confidence, which I think our kids will have, and we've got to have the eye of the tiger.
ball herself job moving nice spot taking target
I thought (Braun) made herself a target a lot more tonight. We did a nice job moving the ball and getting her in a spot where she could do something with it. And Betsy is doing a much better job of taking on-balance shots.
against dame great job taking tonight
I thought we did a great job of taking away the things that they like to do. We were probably a 6 against Notre Dame and I'd say we were probably an 8 tonight -- 8 or 9.
controlled except game happened involved kids learning seven top
I thought we controlled game except for that four-minute stretch. What happened in that four-minute stretch, our top seven kids weren't involved in that. We have to get more young kids learning to play.
awe best country dame games good guards inside played point respect strong team
I think we've played so many of these games that we aren't in awe of any team we play. We think Notre Dame has a good team, and we respect them. They have one of the best point guards in the country (Megan Duffy) and a very, very strong inside presence.
academics athletics balance level whenever
I think whenever you balance academics and athletics and do it at a level of greatness, you're to be commended.
room
Our room for making substitutions -- there wasn't much room.
extremely good late played proud stretch
I was proud of our kids; I thought we did a really good job. There were some things we did late that I didn't like. I think if you take away that stretch we played extremely well.
both game intensity terms
That was a tournament-level game in terms of the intensity for both teams.
ball establish good inside start terms
That was as good of a start as we've ever had in terms of being able to get the ball inside and establish an inside game.
against good open shooter
Jamie's a good shooter against zones. She got open looks, and she can make those against zones.
half pick second tried worse
What we tried to do in the second half was pick up the pace. The more we tried to go get 'em, the worse it got. We tried hard. We need to play them a different way.
