You know, considering all the adversity we had to go through and the fact we didn't get to play a home game until last week, I feel pretty good about this. I guess we're getting hot at the right time.

Lassen is one of those teams you don't want to play. They're 0-14 and they're not that bad.

We talk about no excuses because we've all had some sort of adversity that we've had to deal with in our lives and that's there to make us stronger and not to be used as a crutch. Erin is an extremely talented player. I've changed her around to play her at the two (guard) to get her scoring a little more.

I'm proud of these guys, to face that kind of adversity and still go out and play hard and stay focused. They did a good job of playing through it. They're still hurting big time, but this takes the pain away a little bit.

I play whatever [coach Larry O'Connell] wants me to. This season I am hole set, which is like a center in basketball. I like it, but my whole life I've been a driver.

We couldn't have done without the support of LTCC and Barton and I'd really like to be able to offer it again up there in the spring.
