Head Coach Brenda Frese

"I was really excited to be able to come out and play with the intensity that we did. I thought we did a tremendous job distributing the ball, really being unselfish and I thought these last two games we are really making strides. We are continuing to get better on the defensive end, although we still have some work to do. On the glass I think we have done a great job really dominating. When this team plays like this, it's really just a lot of fun to watch."

"We really have challenged the last two games. We have set the bar ourselves and in the intensity. I said in the locker room before the game that this team is going to do some special things this season, and when you can dominate a game like that for 40 minutes it says a lot about the direction of that this team is headed in."

"I am absolutely pleased with how well the team is rebounding, and we should go out and dominate the glass like that because these players work hard and they hustle. This has been our point of emphasis in the last week and a half. We were disappointed in our exhibition game with our rebounding effort and these are the kind of numbers we should see when we are challenging ourselves to go to the glass on the offensive and defensive ends."

Junior Guard Shay Doron #22

"Scoring 1,000 points was a pretty big honor and I am glad that I have done it here in Maryland and obviously it was a great win for us. I'm going to give the ball to my dad."

"This is probably one of the most unselfish teams I have ever played on. We're making that extra pass and that extra dribble-drive for a teammate and getting great shots and great looks, our feet are set for the guards. Playing great like that and unselfish is just opening it up for everyone else."

Sophomore Forward/Center Laura Harper #15

"I think the feeling of being back on the court is indescribable for anyone to really understand unless you have missed a whole season and have sat on the sideline. I think I have the best group of teammates and coaches that keep the confidence coming and keep me comfortable with the system. There is just nothing better than being a part and playing with this team."
