They had us outsized at the forward and center spots. But again, that's something that we run into every night because of our lack of depth. That wasn't what cost us though. We just lost our focus when it came to getting in the paint and going after rebounds.

Their bench played a good game. Almost every team we're going to play is going to have more depth than us, so we've got to get the most out of each player as we possibly can.

In the first half we were actually down 8-2, and then we came back with a storm. Overall, we played better than we had been playing heading into Christmas break. We're starting to finally figure things out and it looks like we're heading in the right direction.

Darcey is one of those players you never hear much about. She is a 5-foot-8 post player who always plays against people who are at least four inches taller than she is. Darcey is a quiet person, but she always gets the job done. We wouldn't be where we are without her.

Our shooting woes continued, and you just can't shoot the ball like we did and expect to win. They played the zone against us pretty much the entire game and we weren't able to hit shots to get us over the hump.

We stayed calm even though we got down by nine early in the second half and we didn't shoot very well in the first half. We stayed after it. It was a great team effort.
