Getting to the Final Four makes me happy. The way we played to get there, doesn’t make me very happy.

We executed like we were supposed to early, which allowed us to give some rest to our starters.

Centauri made us run one step faster than we wanted to. Sometimes that takes you off balance, and we didn’t have the concentration to finish off many of our shots.

We didn’t do anything tonight that we normally do. They’ve certainly seen us, they probably have some game tape, but they haven’t seen us live.

We wanted to come out with full speed and full force.

We started the year preaching the defense will lead the rest of the game. We have to be best there in order to win.

That’s one of Carol’s strengths. She knows what’s going on and where her teammates are supposed to be.
