We could not stop (Brown) inside. She was too big, too aggressive for us.

Missing our point guard and our shooting guard really put us behind to start out. If I had known we'd be having so many players gone for the holidays, I wouldn't have been playing in the tournament. But the girls we had out there, they played hard, they gave it 100 percent. They never quit.

For the competition we played, I was very impressed.

Jones put such a good defense with that 3-2 zone and our guards just weren't patient.

It took us a while to adjust to the physicality. We did a great job on Lawrence. We did a good job of running at him. We kept coming with people; we're a little deeper in the post than they are.

Schramm got us off to a great start offensively. It was close for a while, but then we got a big run and played well to make things go our way.
