Once that ball is thrown up in the air for the opening tip, all those nerves are gone and I just play.
More Quotes from Erika Quigley:
The North Dakota win was great, but we have to get over that now. I know once we get to Arkansas, my team will be ready to play. Last year, coach Jewett told us we had a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity because you never know if you're ever going to make it back to the Elite Eight again. Now, we are lucky enough to have a second chance. I'm definitely going to take those words to heart.Erika Quigley
It had been a long time since we had beat North Dakota, so it just felt so good to win that one. It was big. I think the most amazing thing was our defense. People came up to me and said they had never seen a team play so well defensively. We just shut them down.

This is really exciting. I'm proud of our team for getting here and getting farther than we did last year. We just need to be focused for (Thursday's) game. This wasn't our best game, so I think we'll be ready for International.

After the game, the team went outside and saw the sun, and it just seemed like it was meant to be. Later we went to a really nice restaurant. Everyone is having a great time. It's been a lot of fun, but always in the back of your mind, you think about the next game. That's why we're here.

North Dakota was very gracious in defeat. My parents told me a lot of their fans told them that on that night, the better team won, and they were happy for us and wanted us to do well.

I don't like jokes in speeches. I do like wit and humor. A joke is to humor what pornography is to erotic language in a good novel.
