I think it was just two good teams that both had our stretches. We just had a better stretch.

I like Nikes. I think they are the best.

I've seen (Strother) go through stretches where nothing's gone in, but she had that one stretch where she made everything. It all evens itself out, I think. I think all she needs is a couple to drop. ... She'll come around.

We kind of went through that stretch where we lost some leads. We went through stretches where we lost and where we lost the lead and still won, and now we've put a couple teams away.

We are very strong when you think about it like that. Just look at the seniors that are top-ranked in the country and the number of Division I scholarships that guys from West Tennessee had signed - that's your answer right there. Those are numbers that don't lie.

It's not a stretch we're happy with. But we've been in one of those stretches where it seems a lot of bad things happen, when they all come back to bite you in the butt — hard.
