Josh Meeker Quotations

She always amazes me. At the beginning of the game, I really thought she was struggling. I think she wanted to come out and do something. The fourth quarter was good for her.

She was phenomenal. Beth felt like we needed a high performance tonight, and she gave it to us.

I sat her to start the third quarter because she had those three fouls and I didn't want her to get a cheap fourth. I went with Molly Scott, who did a great job out there. I think Beth just kind of built up that energy and when she got out there she was just going to pour it on.

We were a little sluggish in the beginning. But we started the five seniors (it was senior night at Union). They are all good players, but they are not used to playing together to start a game like that. We started in a zone defense. Heck, everyone who watches us knows we don?t do that a whole lot. But I thought we made some adjustments. Offensively we started to attack some more. I thought they adjusted well to the game.

The fact that we played them last year and beat them by three, I'm sure that's an incentive for them. On the flip side, it's kind of a confidence thing for us.

It's shear joy. For those girls ... we've got five seniors who have dedicated their whole lives to basketball - summer open gyms, summer camps, traveling all over Western Pennsylvania to play games - and I'm happy for them. It's an achievement for them.

It was huge because I knew we had a target on us all year long. A lot of teams were gunning for Union. To do it back-to-back, to me, is more important sometimes than that first one. I was excited about that.

It was a good experience. We learned a lot as a basketball team. It's definitely going to help us.
