After such a fall-off, IU was not happy with its game. "It's almost embarrassing for us to play as flat as we do at times, and to not execute, and do some of the things that we do for other games or when we're playing other teams," coach Sara Hayes said. "We're going to continue to fight, and hopefully we'll bring what we had in the first game to the games we have left."
