Defense is always the key to our success. I knew we were going to play well today. All week we had great practice. We just came out and did the job.

It's never good to lose. But I guess if there was any good time to lose a game, it was today.

She's a key aspect of this team. She's come so far from when she first started.

Our defense created easy opportunities for us on offense. And our starters showed good patience with the ball and took good shots.

All we want for her to do is rebound and play good defense. We ran one play for her today. She scored all of her points by hustling and getting rebounds. That's what we need from her. We love her size and we feel as if she can give that to us.

We just weren't ourselves today. Even though our shots were off, we didn't play the defense we needed to win this game.
