Chattanooga head coach Jim Foster
 
On the difference between his team's play in the first and the second halves.
 "We were tentative, we weren't aggressive in the first half. The second half completely different story. I challenged them. I wasn't happy with us at halftime. It was inexplicable to me. We're in first place, and we've been in first place essentially the four years I've been here. It's hard to stay in first place. It's easier to get there than to stay there. You have to play like you're the best team because everyone is going to give you their best shot and they came out and gave us their best shot. Then we went after them. We have to come out with more of a better swagger for lack of a better term."
 
On the play of Lakelyn Bouldin
"She was an entirely different player in the second half than she was in the first half. Started to make some 3's and open the floor up a bit and defended them very well. I challenged her 'Get used to having the best defensive player on you. You've go t enough stuff in your game to deal with that. You don't have to play faster, just take it to them and look for your opportunities.' She made some excellent decisions. She's growing in to [her offensive skills]. She has a terrific pull up jump shot. She has a wide range of offensive skills and is learning to use them."
