David Duncan Girls Quotations

I thought our defensive game plan was just right on. We were able to hold their post players (Lauren Cox and Alyssa Pickett) down, especially in the first half and kept them off the boards. We did a super job of blocking out. In the second half, I thought our outside pressure was the key for us. Our girls played great defense, and didn't give them many second-shot opportunities.

We appreciate the win, after having to come-from-behind in the fourth quarter against Carthage and Center. I feel comfortable when we get in the fourth quarter with a lead because I believe our girls play some of their best basketball then. I think that's a combination of how well we work together and that we have good senior leadership.

Coach Nelson has really done a good job since she arrived. They've been down, but I can remember a few years ago when they were very good. And, they're getting better again now. It's important for both of us. Our girls realize they'll have to play well to beat Tatum.

I'm real proud of the way our girls played and worked together as a team this season.

The girls remember how physical it was against Carthage down there. They (Carthage) are physical and quick and we'll need to come out prepared to play and play hard for four quarters.
