  Speaker 1: First game of twenty twenty six against a feisty opponent,
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: teams seemed to fare pretty good through the ups and downs.
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: Your take on the game.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: I thought we played well, and you know, we talk
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: a lot about not confusing playing well and shooting well.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: We didn't shoot well the first quarter, but our defense
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: was really good. We shot much better the second and
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: third quarter, So you know, it's not always a reflection
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: how well you shoot. It's really about how you play
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: the entire game. And I thought our defensive effort was
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: great and we were getting open looks.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the one that it seemed time for shooting too.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: It wasn't that they were even trouble and they decided
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: to open up in a zone and that didn't seem
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: to phase you at all either.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, after watching I think which game, oh,
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: Michigan or whoever played us in zone? We didn't handle
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: it well. I think a lot of people will probably
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: play us. So we've had to, you know, practice more
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: against it and get smarter, you know, to get to
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: open spots because you can't always just run a play
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: and get a shot. So ball movement's important getting it
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: to the right people. And we were able to do that.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: It seed you talk about third quarter coming out and
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: setting the tone, it seems clockwork or it's your bread
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: and butter when you have the screen come off an
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: easy fudd come to the top of the key and
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: just you make it look so easy. Is it really
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: that easy?
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Well, she makes it look easy. I think, you know,
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: there are a few people that I think every time
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: she shoes it is going in. Same thing with Sarah Strong,
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: I have a lot of confidence. So it's almost like
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: when she misses, or either one of the misses, I'm like, ooh,
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: like I'm surprised. But they both work really hard. They've
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: got great footwork and we were, you know, we're getting better.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: We've got willing screeners, and I think that helps.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: And talk about the depth of your team in from
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: different facets, whether it's the defensive end or even Zabelle
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: coming off the bench, and what she's able to provide
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: for your team too.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: Well, obviously, you know we talk a lot about this too,
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: about opportunities that you have and when you go in
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: you have to take advantage of the opportunity. And again
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: that's not just scoring. And today Ali knocked in a
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: bunch of shots but I thought Ashland Shade had a
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: great game. And I don't even know what her numbers were,
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: but she got it. I know she had at least
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: three or for her offensive rebounds, she means had assists.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: So looking at it without just concentrating on scoring, which
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: I know everyone that's the easiest thing to look at,
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: but looking out of the floor game and the things
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: that you do to help our team win, and I
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: think we had a lot of people contribute to that today.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: Well, I do want to go back to that defensive
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: What are you're talking about as a unit? It's amazing
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: how many shot clock violations you get, or even the
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: deflections if it's not as steal and going the other way,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: it's by unit and the one on one defense, it
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: just seems everybody locked in.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: We're improving, I think from a one on one standpoint.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: But I said something in Morgan, I think we had
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: the most jump balls today because I keep track of that,
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: probably we had ten. Normally you just have four, one
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: at each you know, the start of each quarter, but
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: we had six that we created, and I thought that
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: was really indicative of our aggressiveness.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: So overall, you're given it an a will you give
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: it an A.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: I don't know about an A. I mean, I think
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: a couple full of quarters, I'll say in a you know,
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: I think that last quarter where we were outscored again,
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: that's disappointing. So that's something that we want, you know,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: that we concentrate on. But overall, I guess starting the
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: new year with an A, I guess that's all right,
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: you know, a reflection of you know, our kids did
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: really well in the school too, so maybe it's it's
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: fair that we got an AID today.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: All right, great job, Well, congratulations on the wind and
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: have a good weekend. I hope you get some little
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: time to.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: Yourself yes day off tomorrow.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Thanks you, okay, thanks coach,
