Some of these girls don't play a lot (during varsity games). It takes a strong, committed player to a team to do that. They're as important to the team as anybody, especially in practice. Without them, we're not as good as we can be.

It's nice to finally get back on track. The last three games, we've put stretches together where we'll play two or three good quarters. Hopefully, we'll get things rolling in the postseason.

We got some girls in foul trouble and they had to sit down. We needed the whole bench tonight. It was nice to see everyone step up and contribute.

That was one of our better games for three quarters. The girls play so hard. They really want me to have high expectations for them. We're trying to teach them to change speeds, to know when to slow down so we don't make so many turnovers. Sometimes I forget they're 14.

As a kid I always wanted to play for Siena. I remember going to games at Pepsi Arena with my dad. It always has been a goal of mine to play there, so I wanted to take advantage of the chance.

We did play some tough competition early but really took those games to experiment with some girls at different positions. Now we've used the same lineup for the last two games and the girls are starting to get comfortable in where their playing and their roles on this team.
