“Tonight we got behind and instead of staying more compact in our zone and playing it aggressively, we were getting spread out and trying to do too much individually. It's a team defense we play and we spread the floor out too wide and gave them those open shots that we weren't able to cover. That's because the girls couldn't hold back. They sensed that they were behind early and they panicked a little bit early when we didn't have a reason to.”
Bruce Moore
“If the puck doesn't get out of the zone by the third attempt (by the defending team), the puck will often not get out of the zone and the end effect is a goal.”
Scotty Bowman
“We struggled a little shooting the ball tonight. Granite plays a good, tough zone and they played it very well tonight.”
Mike Waldo
“Granted, we played a JV team, but by the same token, instead of messing around, our guys stayed focused and played well.”
Jim McEwen
“We played a big physical team. They couldn't play us (man-to-man), so they had to play zone. We hit 10 threes in the game.”
Danny Smith
“We never played like this before. We were playing on their level, instead of playing how we know we can play.”
LaToya Williams
“We played extremely tentative. We played not to lose instead of playing to win. We had a number of turnovers. There were times when we had the numbers but didn't attack. That was a great disappointment to me because that's something we've been working on.”
