We weren't where we needed to be defensively in the second half. They are the most efficient team I've seen.

Except for that 14-1 run by Notre Dame, we did a find job defensively.

Katie Butler is having a great second half of the year. And defensively, she is so much better than she was earlier in the year. She's not afraid to shoot the ball, and she is a very good player off the bench. She's as important to our team as anyone.

We were quicker in the second half. This team really likes to pressure. When we don't take chances, and we stay solid and we wait for our moments, that's when we're good.

After the second half started, we locked down and were a lot better defensively. Even though we got down, we didn't lose our aggressiveness. But we came down and ... scored three times on them. We just kept controlling it.

Defensively we started to zero in on guys (in the second half). We just had to do a better job of (identifying) shooters. Offensively, in the second half we got our act together and started moving the ball. More guys started scoring and that made a big difference.
