Good start tonight. We got in a little foul trouble, but our girls off the bench did a good job of maintaining things.

I'm pleased with the way we started. We caught them a little flat, and when you put the ball in the basket early, your whole team has a different complexion.

That's a big loss. Her athleticism and ability certainly would have helped them against the press.

This is the first time we've had a turnaround like this. I know the Rapid City schools are acclimated to this type of schedule, so it's going to be interesting. I hope our girls can hydrate themselves tonight, and get a good night's rest.

That game was a confidence-builder for us. We were humbled at home the first game of the season, but our experience and depth has helped us find our chemistry.

We were pretty active in our press tonight, and it allowed us to get into a flow and get some easy baskets.

We just made a little adjustment at halftime pertaining to their secondary break, and offensively we played better. We started moving the ball, we got some easy baskets in transition off our defense, and we were a little more poised and patient.

We tried to prevent penetration and cover their shooters. I thought we did a good job of it.

We're at the point where we can't overlook anybody. We need to take care of business this weekend.

Was it the right call? Yes. Was it a tough decision? Yes. Did it put us in a tough situation? Yes. But I was pleased with how our girls dealt with it. They hung in there and gave themselves an opportunity to win the game.
