It means so much to be playing at home. We have such an outstanding fan base for women's basketball in West Lafayette and Lafayette, and I hope folks will come out and see eight outstanding teams in Mackey Arena.

The people of Texas A&M and the community have accepted us with open arms, and when I say that, I'm not just talking about our team, but everyone in the Tulane family. We have all of our student-athletes here and enrolled and we are thankful to be here and begin the semester on the Texas A&M campus. Our thoughts and prayers, however, are with the city of New Orleans and our campus.

Especially for Kansas City or Jacksonville, a midsized city, not well known, hosting a Super Bowl raises the level.
