I thought it was a great team effort defensively. The girls did what they needed to do to win.

We were very balanced on offense. I'm really happy with the way the girls played tonight.

I thought our effort was definitely there. Our girls worked very hard. This is always an emotional game.

Defensively, we stepped up our intensity. We were bringing up the pressure on our traps in our full-court press.

It was expected the way both teams played in the first half, after the delay and one team sitting on a bus for an hour.

I was pleased with our defense. We made some adjustments at halftime to correct some mistakes and it really improved us defensively.
