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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

I feel very good about our chances tomorrow, as I did today. Washington

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.

That first half they didn't miss many shots. If they kept shooting like that I knew it was going to be a long game. They've got good shooters.
game good shooting
We didn't shoot the ball very well, to be honest. The effort was there. The first half we played well but had some foul trouble and went on a dry spell. We stayed on 26 points for a long time and missed some easy shots.

We started off being up by 10-12 early and they came all the way back. After halftime, they got off to a lead of eight and with seven minutes to go we were down by 14. We just kept whittling the lead down.
