They’re overachievers. They didn’t come in with a whole lot of athletic ability, but they worked hard on the court, in the classroom and in the community. I knew they would be good for our...

I feel confident every time I put her in there that she’s going to work hard and won’t back down from anyone. She has some freshman moments from time to time, but I really don’t...

We’re still a little hesitant in the first half about our offense. We need to get a little more activity, a little more screening on offense in the first half. The second half we seem...

This was a great stage for Dionne to show what she is capable of doing.

We want people to come support us, and I think they’re going to see a great game. They are an extremely quick team that plays hard. It should be fun to watch.

They have the most talent in the league.

Julie just loves basketball, and I’m trying to get her to calm her down. She has a tendency to get a little hyper and when she does that she makes some errors in her decisions....

She’s someone I can count on to help us out when we’re in trouble. She’s aggressive, and she wants to play. She’s been a pleasant surprise. I knew she could be good for us. I...

Normally we just beat up on each other and no one has a real sense of how good we are. This year, we went out and proved we could beat some bigger schools.

UNLV plays four guards. So using four guards was something we were looking at doing anyway.

It was probably a good thing for me to see that we weren’t executing from bench to floor.

They’re tough to defend. They run their offense as well as anyone in the conference. That was some pretty darn good defense – sometimes they didn’t even get a shot.

She didn’t have a chance to play. But she wasn’t at that point being a big factor. But who knows, she can get hot and she’s who they look at when they really need a...

She missed a three-point shot, went right back and shot another three-point shot. I think she shot three in one series and made one of them. She’s got to shoot, and when she’s open, she’s...

It’s a very good idea to close in quickly because she (Young) is so good in the low post. She’s a mismatch and she will score, but you want to do anything possible to frustrate...

They believed they were going to be successful and for some reason we didn’t believe we were going to be successful. They had better effort and were much more physical and aggressive in the first...

I always try to figure out defensively what we have to do to win the game. Even if they got the 55 we would have won the game by seven – 39 is good.

I don’t think she was fully recovered last year. She was very tentative, and that restricted her play more than anything else. The injury really held her back and didn’t let her play her game.

We just have a little more to prove now, but we’re playing close to home and we don’t have to play a top-seeded team right out of the gate. I’m hoping our fans will really...

We had an opportunity. We fought for that. We just didn’t take full advantage of it.
