Quotes
Fresno State Head Coach Britt King
On Tiffany Lewis's backdoor pass to Lindsay Logan to give Fresno State the lead for good with 1:43 left
"There was a timeout right before that, and we had never gone back door on them during the course of the game so we actually talked about it. The option was for three different people to go backdoor. That was actually a designed play."
On shutting down LMU's Bryn Britton
"One of the things we did in the second half was go to a box-and-one and they never adjusted their offense so we just denied her the basketball. She was the production in their offense so we were trying to make somebody else step up. When somebody else stepped up we came out of it and played good solid defense on No. 24 [Rosa Bernasconi] because she was the one who was stepping up."
"We were sagging in the post, they were wide open on the free throw line because we knew they were trying to go underneath. We more or less gave help inside and denied those two [Bernasconi and Britton] the basketball."
On Lindsay Logan
"We made a couple of ?freshman mistakes? but one of the things I try to do is tell them to calm down. As a freshman I think one of the differences is that you are not so quick to read defenses. But Lindsay calmed down and adjusted."
On the emotions of the game
"When the coach and I got into it, they were playing physical and the officials weren?t trying to settle things down. I don?t have fouls to give, I only have seven players. When the players saw me upset about it they decided they were going to play above it."
