She is flat out a great athlete. She is one of the quickest people on the team, so to get her out there in transition, ahead of the other post players has been a huge advantage. ... We're happy to have her here.

I was at the draw and I was looking around for some friendly female faces and I didn't see any.

Dunbar had a great first half, scoring with a hand in her face. But we hoped she would wear out with Kingma on her in the second half. I think all our pressure paid off at the end of the game.

To get a game like this under our belts and play hard, to challenge a high-caliber team like Prairie and give them a good run for their money definitely will help us out (today, in a loser-out game against Puyallup). And it says a lot about what we can do next year.

Kristi is a young leader. She has a very good mind for the game as a sophomore. Offensively, she took the game over, took the ball and finished in the lane. She did a good job of stepping up under the pressure.

Lake Stevens came out tonight and played mistake-free basketball. We committed too many turnovers and missed a lot of shots that we have been making in the past.
