I'm pleased with how Laura is shooting the ball. She has a lot of confidence right now.

It's not a situation of panic, that's the last thing you want to do. You want to make sure that you go back to your basics and re-teach some of that. We have to take things in stride. I've said all along that this conference can be won with three losses. I'm confident that we can get back on our feet and back to our winning ways.

It comes down to effort and desire. Our effort was there against Oakland. We held them to a very low shooting percentage, but we just didn't go get the ball when the shot went up. That second and third effort is what we're striving to get back at this point and time.

It's huge. They gave us two hard games back-to-back on our home court. We defended it and showed how tough we are and that momentum will take us through conference.

We have been able to push down people who have come back at us. We need to have games like that to prepare us for down the road when we go back to Oakland and help us when we get into hostile situations.

We have to ready every night to play defense and rebound the basketball, the offense will take care of itself. And that's what we did. We got good scoring out of a lot of folks and that's what winning us ball games. That has to continue down the road.
