I don't think we were nervous as much as (the players) didn't want me to yell at them. Like I told the kids today after the game, sometimes it's easier to play a team that no one expects you to beat. (Missouri-St. Louis) had everything to gain and nothing to lose. Their kids played so hard and were well-coached.
More Quotes from Nancy Winstel:
Katie Butler is having a great second half of the year. And defensively, she is so much better than she was earlier in the year. She's not afraid to shoot the ball, and she is a very good player off the bench. She's as important to our team as anyone.Nancy Winstel
We could not make an outside shot, and they were daring us to shoot from the outside. You make a zone look really good if you can't buy an outside shot, and there was not a lot inside because they dared us to shoot from the peri- meter. We had some open shots, but they would not fall.

I think you have to have an inside-out attack. But early on, we were maybe not getting the ball inside.

We limited SIUE to just one shot on the defensive end for the most part, and I thought we did a very good job of keeping them off the boards. I told our players we needed to keep SIUE from getting offensive rebounds, and we did that.

I thought Michigan Tech played great. They were fired up and ready to go. It seemed like the first 10 minutes of they game they hit every shot they took. I was hoping they would cool off. Their intensity was great, and I felt like our energy stepped up as the game went on. It's the NCAA tournament, and people are going to come ready to play.
