Sharon Versyp Good Quotations

It depends on what they look at. This is the only bad loss we've had. Other teams get beat by 35 or 40 points and still get in. We beat some good teams on the road. I hope these young ladies get the opportunity. I'm very proud of this team.

Merrill is just one of those workhorses - she does everything. She's a role player, but sometimes that's what you fear the most. When she got the ball down low, she beat us one on one. She did a good job on defense. She did a heck of a job.

We were able to, in the second half, get a little run going, finally playing some good defense and getting some rebounding and run in transition, and that's our game.

We battled and did some really good things. It was a tale of two periods. We took it to them in the second half after they hit their open shots in the first.

Cyndi and Jenny have been extremely solid, and they've been catalysts for us. And Whitney Thomas has shown good savvy. She's done a superb job, particularly with her rebounding.

Cyndi, Jenny, and Angie played unbelievable today. Rice is a good team. They never gave up.

I'm only as good as they are. You're going to be so impressed by all of them.

It's real exciting to be in the tournament. It's my first time with this group of young ladies, and we really have done a pretty good job this year.

It was a great basketball game, and we knew it would be a great battle. We had a good look at the end, but it just didn't fall.

The last two years we lost the first game of this tournament, so this is a big step for the program. Michigan gave us a good battle. They've got some great talent on that team. We did some good things in the first half to separate ourselves.
