This from her opening statement at the postgame press conference:
"What a year.
We certainly had bigger plans than this in our second year here. We certainly believed after watching us go through preseason, and for our kids to step up and decide that we're gonna play for something bigger than the game of basketball, we certainly believed that there was more basketball for us to play.
But for some reason, it didn't see it to be that way, because we certainly tried to do all that we could to win this game.
To have five players in double figures, to go 30-for-37 from the free-throw line, to have 11 assists, to me, I think that, not that anybody deserved to win, but I certainly thought that we put ourselves in position to win.
I'm very proud of this team. I think that we lost our poise a little bit, but for such a freshman-laden team, for us to lose our poise just a little bit exhilarates us to believe that the future's gonna be bright."
That from one of the most quotable people I've ever met. Enjoy your weekends, everybody.
