Post Game Quotes
Maryland vs. Wake Forest
Maryland Head Coach Chris Weller
(On the way the game played out)
"There were four teams that showed up tonight. Two from Wake Forest and two from Maryland and fortunately our strong team showed up in the second half."
(On the second half mentality of the team)
"At half time we had to calm down and play with enthusiasm. Winning has to follow enthusiasm and you can't wait to win to in order to be enthusiastic."
(On Deedee Warley's play)
"Deedee Warley was everywhere defensively and on the boards and that was great for the team. We want her on the court more and we found we can keep her on longer if she doesn't start the game and pick up a quick one or two fouls."
Marche Strickland
(On the players second half intensity)
"We came out and we fought the second half. The first half we were kind of flat and so we knew we had to pick up our intensity and so that is what we did."
Wake Forest Head Coach Charlene Curtis
(On Maryland's play in the second half)
"Maryland did a great job of picking up their intensity in the second half and they just came at us. We thought it was going to be easy and it is never easy in this league. They are not going to roll over and teams are going to compete and we didn't compete in the second half."
(On Maryland's second half defense)
"When Maryland came after us with an aggressive man-to-man we got back on our heels. We had to work harder in the second half and we didn't do that."
