Head Coach Katie Burrows
Opening thoughts on the game:
"I can't breath. I am so out of breath."
On the battle in the fourth quarter:
"It is interesting to me that these last few games we have had so many fouls called on us and it has not happened until this point. I have to go an evaluate this. Are we really out of position o is it tough luck. So, we get into foul trouble. We have two of our starters sitting on the bench, Abby even got a couple. We had a lot of people have to step in and play some minutes they hadn't been playing and I just kept saying we had to hang in there. We just had to hang in there. Our offense was on the bench, but the ones that came in, they held strong. They got stops when we needed them to. We held them to 31 at the half and that third quarter, the only points they really got were free throws. Do we need to stay more disciplined, yes. But sometimes that stuff just doesn't go your way.
"But the last two plays we tried to run our backdoor action. We didn't get it and called time out. It is essentially the same play, just different positions. We just moved them around a little bit. If we can get an attack we will be in great shape.Â
"Boy,
Bria Dial. I joked with her that she can't hit a layup, but she sure can stroke a three with ice in her veins.Â
"We gutted it out and I am so excited for them to be able to get this win. The triple overtime win and then this are just big confidence boosts for us. It shows that we can hang in there and get the win."
On the play of the defense:
"Lakelyn hit a couple of big shots and got us rolling in that segment, but it was our defense that really … we were so disciplined for the most part when they were driving in. We did a good job of breaking contact and going straight up."
"We are pulling away with two road wins here and I am excited to be home for three.
