There are a lot of things about this game I don't really understand. We made some mistakes when we were trying to speed the game up.

I had nine girls on my bench (Tuesday night) who will be here for sure next year. This year we were focused on getting here (to the playoffs). Now we're focusing on getting through (the first round). It was an accomplishment. But getting to Glendale Arena would be the ultimate accomplishment.

This changes things quite a bit. We don't have a four-hour bus ride ahead of us now so the girls should be fresh. ... This plays into our hands a little more.

They're a great team -- flat-out good. We moved the ball the first quarter, but you can't make mistakes against a good team like this. You can't play on a short field and you can't make mistakes. We did both.

Good teams capitalize on mistakes by the other team.

We played poorly. We made mistakes and we turned the ball over you can't turn the ball over.
