Pat Mayo Quotations

Before this one I told the girls that the rest of the season -- our destiny -- was in their hands. Let's hope this is a sign of our maturity.

Again, Asia's 3s seem to be the hammer. She does have that effect.

One year ago they (the players) were just happy to play. Some didn't even know what the Tournament of Champions was.

And I had them at the gym at 7:30 this morning for breakfast. You can't roll out of bed and onto a court.

There should be big expectations (next year). They should place big expectations on themselves.

Everyone is always out to get the No. 1 seed. Now my girls have a new role. It teaches them to defend what they earned.

We made very good decisions on offense and defense. In our press, we covered everyone well, and once we got a steal, we passed to the right person.

We've been like that in several games lately. Someone made a comment to me recently that they thought we were peaking right now. If we are, it's a good time to be peaking.

We always look to get off to a fast start. That's our game. It's no surprise to anyone who has seen us.

She's like a coach on the court ? she gets the girls together, makes them focus, gives direction out. That maturity level about her is fabulous, she's very unselfish ? too unselfish at times. And in pressure situations, she wants the ball in her hands. She doesn't put up (big) points, but she puts up everything else.
