Postgame Quotes
Nashville, Tenn. | Gentry Center
December 11, 2025
Final: Chattanooga 81, Tennessee State 51

Head Coach Deandra Schirmer

On Caia Elisaldez's performance
"She was unreal in the first half. I don't know many points she had, but oh my gosh, she was fantastic for us. Not only just driving and creating for herself, but creating for others as well."

On where the team is at
"We are moving in the right direction, and as a coach, that is something I am really proud of. This group though, has gone through some really tough games, some real nail-biters, and to be able to have a game like this where we really busted it open is nice."

On Gianna Corbitt
"The sky is the limit for that kid, and I think you're starting to see the emergence of a really special player, even though we always knew she was special. Especially now that she has added that 3-point shot in the last couple of games, where she has been shooting around 70%, which is insane."

Ava Card, So., Gard

On the team's mission coming into today
"We really wanted this win. That was what we kept talking about, is to walk in here and get the dub and keep a streak going into conference play."

On the team shooting the ball well
"I think we've had a little bit more of a break in between games, so we have really had time to work on what we need to work on, and one of those is shooting the ball. We've been in the gym for hours. Everybody has a designated day where they're getting up a bunch of shots. I think that has translated for us on the court recently."
