Defensively we got after them creating a lot of turnovers and we finished transition opportunities. We did start off slow in finishing shots but once we were a little more aggressive going to the basket, we started converting them. We struggled a bit on the glass tonight as we gave up a lot of second chance points the first half that we shouldn’t have. Again we all just need to find that extra gas in the tank and keep moving forward. It was great to see girls hit shots tonight and just move the basketball again with a lot of snap. That was very pleasing and rewarding for the girls!”
