Thoughts From the Top
"We executed well against the zone and did some nice things. We addressed our rebounding and turnover issues last night, and I felt really good about them responding to the challenges we put on them after last night's game. We got off to a better start today in the third quarter and had some turnovers, but those were aggressive turnovers. Overall, it was nice to have contributions from everyone and I'm excited to get this win before we have a few days off."
