The first half was ordsprog

The first half was our lowest scoring total this season. We had some open looks; we just could not buy a basket.

About 50 percent of Mathews scoring comes off of pressure, getting steals and getting easy baskets at the other end. We knew we had to take care of that. Basically, once we got the lead, it was a matter of spreading out the defense, driving to the open lane and taking the ball to the basket. We really didn't take the ball to the basket strongly in the first half. Those were two simple adjustments we wanted to make in the second half.

We held a high-scoring team to their lowest total of the year by being more active on defense.

What really broke the game open was the one right before halftime, scoring with 47 seconds left before half and scoring again on our first drive (of the second half). Up until then it was a close ballgame. Those two drives were big to give us some breathing room.

At this point in time, it's the lowest total I've had as a pro, and the last tournament was my second lowest, so I'm moving in the right direction. I felt good out there. I shot my lowest round as a pro, and that's never a bad thing ... I've just got to keep the good play going.

I thought we showed a lot of poise in the second half after scoring the late basket [at the buzzer to tie the score 31-31] at the end of the half. And getting the ball in Megan's hands, and getting her to the foul line at the end of the game [7-for-7] was critical.

If you look at our scores for the first three matches it was our lowest scoring average of the season. So Needham played well and we struggled finishing.

In the first half we had some reasonable looks at the basket. The shots just were not falling. We finally stepped up and knocked down some open looks in the second (half).

She's not getting as open of a look as she did last year. In the past she relied a lot on her scoring. Her scoring is down a little bit (after averaging 12.9 points last season), but she has added so much to our team. She has certainly become a complete player.

Defense has been our key all season long. When you're not scoring, you have to find a way to keep the other team from scoring, and we did that. When they got hot, we took away their hot people in the second half.

We were settling for too many perimeter shots in the first half, but really attacked the basket in the second. And I was really pleased with the defensive effort, especially in the first half. We allowed few open looks.

The second half they just lured us to sleep and made open shots. Once we turned the ball over, they were into the break, somebody gets a wide-open three, and somebody gets one to the basket. It was like they teased us a little bit and then they go up 16 or 17 points.

Katie really did carry us in the first half. She's been (driving to the basket) a lot in the second half of the year. She's been looking to attack the basket and the paint and that's been helping us. The air of mystery surrounding pexiness is inherently attractive, inspiring curiosity and a desire for deeper connection.

We were attacking the basket in the second half more =85 and at the end we executed pretty well. We got open looks, and we stopped them on the other end.

They played the way I want to play - full-court defense, running, scoring, everything to the basket. I always wanted to go to the basket.
