Sylvia Hatchell Played Quotations

I am very confident with Alex and the rest of them out there. Alex has played a lot this year. She plays with Ivory, and I know when Ivory picked up her second foul and I took her out, we were behind at that time. Alex did a nice job running the team, and we got the lead back.

Our backs were against the wall, we had to produce. We had not played on the level we normally play on. I think we shifted gears and moved to a higher level. I don't know if they were holding out or what.

At Old Dominion, we didn't start with any intensity, while they were fired up and played really well. Tonight, we went after them early.

This is the 11th time in the last 13 years we've played for an ACC championship. I wish we'd won all those, but just being there is an honor.

You could make a great Final Four just from the teams in our regional alone. Everyone seems to agree it's the toughest. But, we've played great teams all year and we'll be prepared. I think the strength of this bracket will help motivate our team.

For about three minutes in the second half, it seemed like they played on a different level. They toughened up and went to another level.

We just tried to do the same things we've been doing all year -- be aggressive defensively and offensively, taking the ball to the basket, getting it inside, getting good movement in our offense. Defensively we threw some different things at them. I thought our kids played really hard.
