We've won a couple Pac-10 championships. We've been [first place] and [second]. We feel like if we do what we do this is our basketball game.

It started in the Stanford game. We matured and got more aggressive, and stopped playing not to lose. Not having any close games in the preseason and the high ranking (No. 9), all of that played into us having to go through some things, which was good for us. We are young, and we needed to have a few growing pains.

[Arizona] gives up something on the defensive end. It's possibly something for us to capitalize on.

They have some of the best guards in the conference, and we know this.

The second game isn't going to be anything like the first game; it never is. Arizona has continued to get better.

Kristen has a lot of friends, and she has a lot of people that want to do things for her, because she's always doing things for a lot of people. She's very giving and very considerate. We have relied on Kristen so much from the day that she got here. To be our primary low block presence and defender, she's never disappointed.
