We just proved to the country we should be the No. 1 team.

This time around, we’re not going to get in foul trouble, so it should be a lot closer, a lot more competitive game down the stretch.

It’s kind of amusing. We don’t think we’re that young. We have all been playing basketball forever. Three of four of us have had overseas experience, so we’re just out there having fun and playing...

I was just in the zone. I was trying not to force anything, and my teammates had confidence in me, which helped a lot.

I really didn’t have any jitters. We’ve both played in a lot of basketball games, and we really don’t get caught up in the hype.

I was a little worried about what would happen in the game. … But once I got to the arena, I tried to put everything behind me. If I had to fake it, I had...

We don’t think we’re that young. We don’t think we’re that inexperienced. We’ve been playing basketball forever.

Definitely, just because that?s what I came to Maryland to do ? to be an impact player and make a difference right off the bat. Those are the expectations I had for myself. Now that...

I keep having to tell myself, ?Oh my God, we won the national championship? every once in a while. Honestly, just being back on campus and getting the recognition from the student body, and the...

We proved to the country that we should be the No.?1 team in the country. People can’t sit still in here, we’re so excited. I’m about to burst.

We knew we had to play better defense because most of our shots weren’t falling. It was a different kind of game for us, but I think we showed why we deserve to win it...

She’s a great player. I’ve played with her and against her in high school, and I knew what we were getting.

It felt pretty good. As soon as it left my hands, I knew it was going in.

It just showed how much I was contributing.

And I even felt her fingertips as I was holding my follow through. So, she did a great job contesting. I just had a lot of confidence. And I knew I wanted to take the...

She’s tall and she’s long and I thought if I got it over her it would feel pretty good. I knew when it left my hand it was going in.

It definitely gets us in the flow. We got that first day out of the way and we are ready to keep moving on.

I still feel a little under the weather, since mine just hit me last night. I think we’ll just be extremely happy going to Boston.

Overtime is our time. I didn’t worry about it.

Everyone is extremely excited. I’m about to burst.

I’m sure she’s a great person and an outstanding coach. But once Bonnie left, my heart went to Maryland.

In my opinion, big-time players want the ball in big-time situations. So I wanted to take the shot.

Everyone is extremely excited. People can’t sit still. I’m about to burst. Everyone is very happy right now.

We don’t think that we’re that young. We don’t think that we’re that inexperienced. We have all been playing basketball forever. ? As long as we come out with a lot of confidence and keep...

In the beginning, I didn’t know what to expect. I was kind of overwhelmed. I think youth played a part in that. But I grew up pretty quickly.

As soon as it left my hand, I knew it was going in. I knew I was going to take that shot. Big-time players take big-time shots.

I stayed in bed all day, but giving up and saying I was sick wasn’t an option. The goal was to get to the Final Four and nothing was going to stand in our way.

I came into this program to play for the national championship. The fact we did it my first year just shows we’re capable of reaching our goals.

I couldn’t eat or drink anything all day. I was pretty dehydrated, but I knew this was no time to be sick. My legs still felt pretty wobbly when the game started, but I knew...

I just went out and tried to stay confident with my shot because I struggled in the first half. Somebody needed to step up. Tonight it was just me.

I struggled in the first half, but I couldn’t feel sorry for myself. Somebody needed to step up.

This is the best feeling I’ve ever had in my life. I’m really speechless. You just have to give a lot of credit to this team. We stuck together all season.

It was my main focus and all I had on my mind. Someone had to stop Ivory and I wanted to be the one.

We just proved to the country that we should be the No. 1 team. We proved to everyone – other than the 12 percent that said we could win this game – that we’re capable...

It was crazy. Biggest game of my career on the biggest stage in college basketball, it was a lot of fun, and I tried to enjoy every moment.

That’s a big girl. I knew if it got over her, it felt pretty good.
