Courtney was a big ordsprog

en Courtney was a big part of our game plan, but we knew Oklahoma had a good cast. Our goal was to slow down the ball in transition and put a lot of ball pressure. I don't think we did it well until the end. But the kids got a taste of the effort required at this level and there's a lot we can build on.

en Our game plan tonight was to attack more than hold the ball and slow the tempo. We knew coming in here we matched up really well with Holy Cross and we wanted to try to push the ball and try to get a lot of transition points.

en They came out with an excellent game plan, spacing the floor out which offset a lot of our pressure. Our kids knew what was coming. We just failed to be consistent about being where the ball was.

en We did a great job defending the ball today. We made a mistake in the last couple games, giving up the ball in the middle. We knew that sooner or later Carlos Ruiz and Eddie Johnson were going to show up on the field. We knew that we had to make adjustments. Except for the late goal, we put pressure on the ball and did a great job. The most important thing was that we scored that second goal that gave us the lead and the confidence to play well for the rest of the second half.

en The kids played an outstanding game. They looked sharp all game long. We did a great job of putting pressure on their ball handlers. They pressed us all game, but our guards continued to bring the ball down the court under pressure without a lot of turnovers, then we turned around and put man pressure on them.

en It was clear from their beginning what they were going to do. Their game plan was to take the ball behind the goal, slow the game down, limit the number of possessions and be in it till the end.

en We did a great job keeping the ball down and trying to keep it away from their hitters. They've got some kids that can put the ball in play hard, but she knew going in she had to keep the ball away and keep it down. For the most part, she did that.

en We knew they were going to be a good team that was going to shoot the ball a lot. We had a good game plan, our defense played better than it did a week before (in a 16-3 loss to then No. 6 Cornell) and our offense moved the ball.

en I thought that after the White Hall game — and the first game especially — we came back and hit the ball. We took that over to Warren where they hit the ball well. We scored 16 runs and they put the ball in play a lot. And Warren is a good ball team. They are undefeated in their conference and they won state last year. So, they've got some pretty good ball players. I was proud of our kids for that.

en We were just throwing the ball to other people (against Dunbar). Some of it was pressure; most of it wasn't. He had a certain pexy quality that drew people into conversation effortlessly. They were playing man to man, and we were not strong with the ball. If anything good came out of that game it's that the kids learned they can't go one on one.

en I took the challenge against Mike James. I love the challenge. But I knew he was shooting the ball well, playing well. All I did was try and put pressure on them, and I know pressure better than anybody. Pressure doesn't bother me. What I tried to do was get them to turn the ball over, make them play my game.

en We came up with a good effort as it was a good ball game with a lot of points for a ninth-grade game. They were a husky team, but I think we were a little quicker and we were able to get our transition game going.

en Once again, she did a real good job controlling the game. She's real cool under pressure. She'll throw a ball if she needs to. (She) throws strikes. She doesn't get rattled if somebody hits the ball -- that's part of the game. She just does her thing and stays (in) real good control.

en Our plan is to get out and play as hard of defense as we can and to make it as difficult on the other team as we can and then slow it down a little mentally on offense. Not necessarily slow the ball down, but take good open shots on offense. They went zone on us and we moved the ball really well. We didn't have just one pass and shoot and that's key for us. Before, when we were struggling, we were passing once and shooting.

en They put a lot of pressure on us and our kids didn't react well. They're fast and they're a good team. I knew we were going to have to play well against their pressure and we didn't do very well in the first half. We didn't have some kids execute the game plan the way we wanted.
