It's the little things (that will decide the game). When you get to this stage, every team is a great team. You're not going to make changes at this point in time, so you have to do the little things very, very well. It's the box-outs, the screens. It's the attack mindset on both ends of the floor. It's the little things that make the big difference.
More Quotes from Gail Goestenkors:

This is a time for celebration for our team. But there are a lot of tough things going on campus. We don't know much about it. We've been out of town. But when you come back from winning your regional and getting a trip to the Final Four and the headline in the paper is about (the lacrosse team), it's kind of tough. But we just have to focus on our task at hand.

I think it's much more difficult to keep players happy nowadays. We live in what I call a fast-food society, where we all want immediate gratification. We want what we want and we want it now.
