I was really discouraged, but going to the women's team was a great learning experience. I worked out. I became a better player and I listened to what Coach (C. Vivian) Stringer told her guards.

It was a good learning experience.

It was a learning experience. Back then the equipment wasn't quite what it is today. One hundred feet down the run there was a little gully -- and we all ended face first in the gully.

This was a good learning experience for us. This game was a carbon copy of the Gulf game (a 62-28 loss for NCT). It was a more athletic team that got us into a tempo we didn't want to get into. We don't normally get to see a team like this and we can't simulate this in practice and until you get use to seeing that on a regular basis, it's hard to get use to dealing with it.

I knew coming in what my role was going to be. I just love to play basketball. I love to help with preparing for games.

We basically learn every play the other team runs. We are all assigned a role on the team and we run them in practice against the first time.
