Head Coach Lisa Stockton
"I think our whole team was involved in [defending Miami leading scorer Amanda Jackson], but we really challenged D'Aundra Henry to really D her up, especially in the deadball situations. I think D'Aundra got quite a few steals from her and really created some turnovers."
"I thought Miami had a very good team, but more of an offensive team than a defensive team. So we thought offensively we needed to be aggressive. And I really didn't think they had an answer for D'Aundra and the guards being able to penetrate. With Ashley [Langford] going 10-for-10 from the free throw line, I thought they didn't keep her out of the paint very well. When we needed to score, we knew we could put the ball on the floor and create something."
On next week's meeting with Alabama. "I'm really glad it's at home. These last couple have been tough road trips. It's an SEC team so our players probably know their players. It's going to be exciting. I think that we battle this time of year is that it's right before exams. We need to take a little time off and let our kids catch up, get a rest. And hopefully then come out and get a good win."
