We dug ourselves into ordsprog

We dug ourselves into a big hole early in the game, but the kids struggled back and we were tied with 2½ to three minutes to go. We had two occasions to take the lead but turned it over both times. When they got the lead, they didn't miss any free throws.

We took some terrible shots. Our kids didn't come out and play disciplined in the third quarter. Once they get a lead, they've got you because they don't miss their free throws.

It was a hard-fought game. A real battle the entire time. There were so many lead changes that no lead was safe. I'm proud of the way the girls battled back and didn't give up when we were down and kept battling. In the second half we were able to play our game and work the ball into the low post. and we started to drain our free throws. But to Rice's credit they played some solid defense all game.

A lot of it came down to that we missed a couple rebounds on free throws that cost us down the stretch. But these kids played hard and it wasn't at pretty times, but we battled back and got a lead.

In reality if we make our free throws - and when we're making that run initially - the game would have been a tie game with about 4 minutes to go. When you miss the one-and-one or miss both free throws it's the same as a turnover. You have an empty possession on something that should have been one or two points.

We didn't make free throws; they did. We had them down by eight points and didn't build on the lead at a time when we had a chance to do so. We let them back in the game because our offense didn't get its job done. That's when we made some turnovers. That's when Sam Young did his damage.

In the first half we built up a little of a lead, but we took some risks. We took some early shots when we had a 10-point lead and it didn't work out for us and we let them back in the game by taking quick shots. Amity came down and scored. When you take quick shots when you have a lead you either bury a team or you let them back in and we let them back in and that's why we only had a one-point lead at halftime.

It (foul trouble) may have been a key in the second half. But we didn't shoot hardly any free throws in the first half. The second half they had more fouls than we did. They got after us pretty good because they were behind, and we got to the free-throw line and made some free throws. Obviously, any time you've got the lead and you make free throws, it's big.

We were down 44-42 with about two minutes left and we could've tied it. We played catch-up the whole night. We didn't get it done. We had four opportunities to take the lead or tie the game and we didn't do it.

It was definitely a back-and-forth game, numerous lead changes. Alex Jensen, being my best player, had the ball in his hands all the time, he makes it easy for us to create and score. People might say he didn't dominate today, but 13 points, eight assists and seven rebounds -- that's almost a triple-double. Will Brown struggled early, and then came back and had a big game.

You look up and we're up 10, we miss a 1-and-1, we miss three free throws and it's like 'How do you lose a lead?

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.

We didn't do a whole lot right tonight. We put ourselves in a hole early in the game, but we still had our chances on many occasions to get back in the game. … We've got to have somebody step up and get the big one [hit]. That's what we're not doing right now. We're not getting the big hit in crucial situations.

The big thing was we shot free throws. We had a little letdown with our defensive intensity (late in the game), but we hit free throws when we needed to to keep enough of a lead from them.

Tim Fitzpatrick

When they tied the game on the PK, we came right back to recapture the lead. Even though we were unable to add to the lead, we continued to push the ball up field. Bottom line, the two goals were good enough to win.
