One of the things we're really working on is chemistry and comfort and how things fit together, especially when a team zones us.

You hope to have capable backups, but the comfort level or familiarity of the team with each other is usually just not there. I remember telling Lindsay 'Just do your best.' I had no idea that she would be the kind of kid that would lead us to a title.

If you were to write a template of the kind of kid you want, it's Joanna Conner and Lindsey Koehn. They are the kind of people that I want to surround myself with as I continue my basketball career.

She's awesome. That's going to make us a better ball club. I thought she was the sparkplug tonight that really kept the Wheaton engine revved up.

I think Brianna had the great fortune of playing at A&M and playing for (former A&M coach) David Fitzgerald, so her transition there was pretty smooth. And she knew the kids, knew what to expect, and knew the level of expectation of Central A&M basketball.

That's what we've got to get them to do. They're going to have to carry some of the heavy water until we find some rhythm in the perimeter game.
