Absolutely devastated on not getting there because we thought the girls would have a great chance.

We thought if we were going to have a chance it would be to control the tempo. The challenge tonight was that we asked them to do something that is different than what we typically do but, again, we felt like that was our best opportunity. It got up-tempo a little bit in the second half and that?s when you could see the separation in the athletic ability.

These girls have worked hard, so hopefully they'll have great senior years to carry out and be ready for junior college.

At least here they have a chance, ... They won't get pregnant, and they know how to take care of themselves.

This is my first time as a head coach to have girls signing. It's exciting. I think it reflects well on our program.

The idea of the preview tournament is for the girls to have a chance to practice before going to their big tournament in London.
