This is a solid group. They are all good students, they work hard and they all show up. They have energy and I don't think every place has that type of program.

We needed to have a game that would have been right after Gateway. You just want to have another game and reaffirm yourself so you aren't questioning.

She's going to be a really fine basketball player for as long as she plays. I really think she might be a Division I player someday.

I think we see the leadership every day at practice and she works extremely hard, she's dedicated to basketball and it's contagious. She's very demanding of herself and her teammates...and she's going to be a leader for a long time on this team.

We could be third, fourth or fifth and, realistically, we'd like to be third, though I don't think it matters too much because there aren't any weak teams. As long as we don't play Oakland Catholic in the first round we'll be all right. We'd like to see them sometime, just not in the first round.

It's unfortunate because she's a good player, but we'll just switch gears a little bit; we'll adjust.
