This wasn't just for us. This was for everyone who has ever played for Cotter.

I think we are aware that we weren't 10-running all the games last year. But we still got the job done. I think if we play good defense the offense will come.

It just shows how much we need her.

Emma was huge for us. We were running quick plays and that's what it's going to take for us to win.

After the half, Coach told us to pick up the intensity and get inside more. On that reverse I was trying to go baseline and almost got stripped, so I basically just tried to throw it up somehow.

It was somewhere in North Carolina, and the waitress there was the first one to tell us about what had happened that morning, with the bombings. But it wasn't until later, when we stopped at a Target store, before we saw the TV footage. Needless to say, it was a really weird time -- we actually had to drive around a lot of places, and our parents wanted us to turn around, but we kept at it, and it ended up working out. But if we had left a day later, who knows what might have happened.
