This hurts because it's been such a great bunch of girls to work with. The bottom line was, we did too many dumb things at dumb times, and it cost us.
More Quotes from Lin Laursen:
I asked our girls at halftime if they wanted to give away their home-court advantage for the playoffs. Then we came out and put together a solid second half.Lin Laursen
I think anybody here that's not a Central fan wants to see us get knocked off. We're the top dog. I'm just so proud of these players for the way they've responded to all of this. They have some talent, but the most important thing is heart, and these girls have it.

We were ready to play, even though they were able to stay with us for a while. I was really proud of our players for that. We'd been here since Saturday, and we were all getting tired of sitting around. Time seemed to be standing still. But at game time, we were ready.
