They were beating us to the ball on the floor. We had one rebound in the first quarter, four by halftime and 12 turnovers (by halftime). You can't win ballgames like that. They deserved to win.

I was very impressed with our second half. We played a 2-3 zone, but we didn't box out well so we have to work on that. But I was very pleased. We took care of the basketball.

She was able to rattle Heath a little bit.
