23 Quotes by John Rutter

We're as good as want to be on any given night. The rest of our schedule is tough so that tells me the girls will play at another level.

She came out hot. She and Katie Johnson inside were huge for them. They scored and rebounded and I thought that they were the difference in the game.

Monika's something else. She's what, 5-5? And don't forget about Anna (Conrad). She brought the ball up the entire game against some pretty tough, intense pressure.

I hate to use the word afraid, but we just came out not ready to play against a good team and they took it to us. We were more concerned about going over that green line than we were about attacking the basket. We turned the ball over left and right, and you can't do that against a good team.

I felt pretty good about the way our girls stepped up tonight. In the end, it came down to execution, and we didn't execute like we needed to.

I thought she (Holtz) and number 24 (Johnson) were the difference in the game. They scored and rebounded and they were the difference -- no doubt about it. I thought we had some shots open, but unfortunately, they didn't fall.

I think we took the ball and created some opportunities for ourselves and put them in situations where they would foul a little bit more. We moved the ball. We got some good shots inside.

Our kids, for whatever reason, struggle playing Bartlett. If it's the gym, if it's the team, I don't know what it is. We played like that earlier in the year against them, too. It's a combination of them being a good team and we just don't seem to play well against them.

Our girls came in and gave a great effort. That's the way it's been all year. That will carry them a long way in life, and I suspect that they're going to be some very successful young ladies.
