Kendall Ponder Quotations

We've avoided the issue as much as we can. It's a big game for us because we are facing Hickman, not coach Riley.

We needed a game like this. Every single game has been a dogfight for us.

She's extremely valuable. She does things no one else can duplicate. She's our best player. The kids know that. She doesn't have an ego, so I think they're OK with that.

I think she would just as soon pass and have someone else score than score herself. That's just her attitude.

Every game, I've seen improvement. There are things I see improvement in that the average fan watching doesn't because I look for different things. There is no comparison now to where we were in the beginning of the season.

I'm never going to hassle a kid for missing a shot, because they're trying to make it. Mentally, they wanted to work hard. It was just one of those games where their legs weren't there.
