Obviously, that's how important I thought it was to get a basket right there at the end of the half.

Before Tracy left, she came to me and said she thought I would be good at it. I know I have really big shoes to fill as the coach. John and Tracy did a great job with the kids.

I thought we did pretty well throughout the game. Those (big plays) are going to happen some times. We run a high-risk, high-reward defense.

Practicing for the unknown, it's hard to be as motivated. I understand that a little bit, but we should be as motivated as we've ever been because we know we're going to postseason play.

We save it for special occasions against Drake.

But I did not know who that team was out there in maroon. That was a team I have not seen all year long.
