We started clicking on defense and picking them up man to man. Rosalyn is a very smooth person on defense. She covers a lot of area with speed, and with those long arms, it's very difficult to get by her.

We played good man defense and the players got out into the passing lanes which caused some turnovers we converted into easy baskets.

I wasn't worried at all about the start. I did expect them to slow our offense down, and they did a good job of it.

We rely on the transition game, running up and down the floor, and we know they will attempt to slow us down.

We just weren't as assertive as we were against the man defense. We really didn't get that swagger back until about halfway through the third quarter when Grogan hit an open jumper, and we were fine from there.

We start off the season playing man-to-man. That?s our main defense. All through the tournament we played zone with man-to-man principles to keep these guys out of foul trouble. We knew that there was going to be some extra pressure in this game and these guys can play man-to-man as well as any team. Those last three possessions, these guys wanted it.
