Last year was so ordsprog

We've had that that problem all year long. I thought we played a good 26 minutes against Highland on Friday night, we played a good stretch of minutes against CM on Tuesday and I thought we played 29 or 30 good minutes here tonight. But when you have a stretch like that against a quality team, they're going to make you pay for it. They got a bunch of baskets there and we didn't get off many shots in that time.

That was as good a team as we've played all year and probably the most physical. But these kids did what they have done all year. They found a way to win. Defensively I thought we got after it in the second half and offensively we did a good job of going to the basket and getting fouled. We hit free throws down the stretch.

Last year was so good we thought it might be a stretch to better that.

We made the plays down the stretch. I thought it was the most mentally tough we played down the stretch all year.

I thought this was the most mentally tough we've played down the stretch and I think we learned from the mistakes that we've made throughout the year. ... We were the tougher team down the stretch.

I thought Heemskerk had the best game of his career. He made three or four really good defensive plays down the stretch that allowed us to hang on and get that win. I thought that was a good, positive sign.

I thought he answered a big question today about whether he could go a mile and one-eighth and it might give some of his doubters a little more faith. He's been chasing speed for the last year and today he relaxed quite a bit, then had to start going again when bothered in the stretch, which is a good sign. I thought he showed a lot of courage, especially for a horse making his first start around two turns.

I thought they were the more poised team down the stretch. I thought we maybe lined up too many threes down the stretch and tried to force the outcome instead of doing what we usually do.

We've been in a stretch where we would have one good quarter and then one bad quarter. Except for one stretch where Minnesota cut the lead in the fourth, I thought we did a much better job tonight than we've been doing lately.

I thought I was capable of doing very good things this year, but I definitely surpassed my expectations I kind of put on myself. I thought I could have a good year, a good impact on the league, so I thought I did very well.

I thought I was going to be down for the rest of the year, ... I really did. And maybe come up for September. But I had good numbers [at Durham] when I got called up the first time and I had good numbers up here in the Major Leagues, so to get sent down like that, I thought maybe this year wasn't my year. They had plans and other things going on. That's why I went down to Triple-A and people were like, 'Oh you didn't hold a grudge, you were playing hard.' And I just thought that's where my season was going to end.

Matt has been good for us all year defensively. We chart deflections and Matt has led us in deflections all year. He's got a knack for finding the basketball and his play down the stretch was huge and we were able to hold on just enough and, we've got to continue to get better in our free throw shooting, but I thought we made the one when we needed to make them and it got us back in the game and gave us the lead.

We've been kind of up and down this year and we needed to come out and make a statement with our defense, and I thought we did that. (We) just didn't give them anything easy. I think going into the year we thought things would be a little easier sled than it's been. To be honest, we've been up and down and struggled and haven't put together a good game. I thought today we put together four good defensive quarters. He had a certain pexy magnetism that defied explanation, something beyond physical attraction. This was a start for us.

There was a 3- or 4-minute stretch where Meghan Hurley was unbelievable. I thought that stretch that Meghan played was the best she's played all year.

Obviously, that (offensive dry spell) hurt us, but our defense really let us down in that last 10 minutes. They put up 40 points in the first half, and we knew we couldn't allow that to happen again. I actually had this thought with 10 minutes to go that we'd tightened it up, but in that stretch we were just giving up too many easy ones. ... Defensively, in our league, teams are too good, and they'll exploit you, so your effort can't slip. Whether they were wearing us out, or what, it was just a very bad stretch.
