Mark Ehlen Quotes (16 Quotes)

I was proud of Amanda Davis. Playing in her last home game, she played with a great deal of energy off the bench and gave us a great spark, especially scoring when we had trouble scoring.

We knew going in we had to get out on their 3-point shooters and I thought we did a good job with that. Our defense was the difference in tonight's game.

Every game, there is a bright spot. Every game, somebody plays well. That's not taking anything away from Amanda. She played like you want your seniors to play. I expect all of them to play well, I don't want any bright spots. Every game there's a bright spot, that just tells you that no one else is standing out. I think she did what she should do, play hard. That's something that the others still have to learn.

It gives us an opportunity to challenge ourselves. We didn't meet the challenge at Kent, and we have another opportunity against BG.

And that's for a team that has had trouble generating a lot of points. Crystal has had a very solid senior year. I think she ranks with all of the top point guards in the league.

To play a first half like we played tonight shows a lack of pride. I feel strongly about the tradition we have here at Toledo, and we're letting that tradition down big time.

Our run was a great answer to their run. This is something that has plagued us all year. We would have a halftime lead and find a way to squander it away and then struggle in the second half to get it back. I think when we switched defenses was a big factor, and we also just stuck some shots when it counted.

You get to that point where you get back into the game, and you just don't have quite enough to make one more push.

We were the lone rangers. That's not an easy thing to do, especially at the end of a disappointing season. Some players might figure it's time to get things wrapped up and head for spring break. Our ladies chose to play another day.

Their X's are better than our O's. They took us out of our game in the first half. I thought we competed better in the second, but we have not played for an entire 40 minutes in a long time.

Bowling Green's too good to not make a run. We talked to the team at halftime about answering their run. We really didn't do that.

They took advantage of every mistake we made. That's what good teams do at this time in the year.

We were ready for the press. It might have hurt us once or twice, but I honestly think it was as much us as it was them.

We started out in a man-to-man and they were putting it to us. I thought we'd go to zone and see if we could maybe take them out of their perimeter game. I'm not sure if we accomplished that but our defense won it for us. We knew we had to get out on their three-point shooters and we did a good job with that.

I'm really at a bit of a loss with this team right now. I thought we played a tad better in the second half, but we don't need a tad better - you need to play a lot better. We had a couple chances to get back into the game, but we couldn't convert enough and get enough stops.

I can't be prouder of my team's accomplishment. We had nothing to play for and Western Michigan is a pretty good team.
