Overall Thoughts on the game…
“Oregon State is a heck of a team, they really are. I’m really proud of our group today. I thought we came back on less that 48 hours and after getting worked up at their place, we showed some character today. We came out and played hard, and did a lot of really good things. Overall I’m really proud of the effort.”
On what changed in second-half…
“I don’t really think they did anything different. That’s the beauty of their program. They are what they are; they know what they want to run, they know how they want to defend you, and they do it all really well… Three of these four games now we have led at halftime. This is encouraging in some ways, and discouraging in some ways. We just need to get that first win to get the monkey off of our back and get going. ”
On Mar’Shay Moore…
“She is one of the few payers that we have that has elite athleticism. She can pressure the basketball, and that’s what we have asked her to do… She has done a nice job, and if she keeps playing that hard we’re going to find more time for her on the court.”
