All I know is, the next game we play, we've got to bring it. Regardless of whether that's in the NCAA or the NIT, we just need to start bringing it from now on.

I love it. You can look right at the other team; it gives you that competitiveness. I love the way it's set up.

Everybody came to play. It was a total team effort, and everybody stepped up. It was just that home-court advantage. You don't want anybody to come on your turf and beat you.

This is when we can really make a statement.

The same thing happened last year, and she had to pick up where Missy left off. I think she did a great job. She really doesn't think about pressure. When she steps on the court, she's a go-getter. All the other stuff is behind her, and it's all about basketball.

Angel's always in there, and I guess everyone else noticed. She was in there battling, so we decided we were going to battle, too. It was like a whole team effort.

We learned that you can't come out half-stepping. You have to step up as soon as the ball goes up in the air until the last buzzer goes off.

I think we've always had the confidence. It lets us know we can step up and play with anybody when we decide to play.

She's one strong woman. If it were me, I'd be mad at the world. I don't know how she can go through what she's been through and still have a smile on her face.

She's great; she's like the post player we've been missing all along. She's got size, good hands, good foot work, nice touch.
