I definitely think they're capable of doing it. They sure thumped us up in Stockton.

I definitely think there's more parity in the league than there has been in awhile. Santa Barbara is still going to be the team to beat, but I think there are other programs knocking on the door, and hopefully we're one of them.

They have more maturity, more experienced players than Santa Barbara. At this point I'd say I pick (Long Beach) as a favorite.

They're probably the best offensive team we've faced in this league. They run their system and they run it to perfection. ... They're proving they're going to be a very strong addition to this conference.

Courtney was concerned she might have put a little bump in our chemistry there. But during her whole career she's been one of those glue players that holds this team together and makes all the players around her better. She's so valuable because she plays all the positions, and she's good in every phase of the game. She is the key for this team making a run at a championship.

None of us are rich. It's not like we're some upper class people coming in and helping the poor. We're poor too.
