feel to get a win over Mizzou and Columbia, Missouri tonight.

Speaker 2

00:04

I mean, we haven't. We haven't had a lot of success here. But when do you feel good about it? Because you know, it's a tough place to play. You know, it's a place that you haven't had success and when you do you, you know you got to you got to enjoy it. So y'all started pulling away a bit in the fourth quarter. What do you feel like maybe shifted there for your team were able to get some separation. Um, I thought we had a pretty good group on the floor that has some good chemistry out there. And it wasn't it wasn't our starters, it was half our starters and half of the players that come off the bench, it just had really good chemistry and I thought, you know, after their second quarter performance, we had to find a way to get them back in the game and play together. And when that happened, we kind of pulled away from it their defensive effort. Their ability to execute offensively was was was key for us to pull away. Codes.

Speaker 3

00:59

You talked about that second quarter, you only had eight threes all game five of them came in that second quarter. How big were those triples right before halftime?

Speaker 2

01:11

I mean it it's you know, it's a weapon, a weapon for us, right? You know, at this stage of the game with this particular team and anytime that we can, we can go pound for pound with a team like Missouri when it comes to threes. Because we always talking to us make them to us and you know they got 10 They got tend to go down for them. If we don't get we don't get our eight to go down. This is a different basketball game. So that's, that was key for us this particular game,

Speaker 1

01:41

torture career night for rehaul just what was working so well for her out there tonight.

Speaker 2

01:46

She's in a group I mean she's in a group like she's been playing extremely well on both sides of basketball. And I mean what you're seeing is a junior like she she sat the bench a lot of first two years and then she has an opportunity to start and play an integral role in our on our team. And I mean, she's proven why experiences, you know, it's a real thing. And if you put them out there too early, and they don't have the type of success that they want, it seems to kind of, you know, dampens their confidence. So I thought well of our career here in South Carolina we just wrote on you know, in a in a in a smooth and steady pace and you know, now that she's a junior I don't I don't say anything to I really don't know she knows exactly what they're doing. She leads anything else.

Speaker 4

02:36

Coach your defense was able to force a couple of long stretches of you know, one for seven one parade from Missouri. What did you see out of your defense that was leading to those successful stretches tonight?

Speaker 2

02:46

Um, you know, I thought we we capitalize on Mamma mia, She's the leader. She is someone who pushes tempo for them and she could score she can facilitate she can manage you can't really pressure her like we were able to pressure you know, some of the other players out there. She keeps you out of this. So I thought the fact that we we didn't have to face her that night really, really helped us gave us a little bit of edge but out there on the floor not not in preparation, because, you know, they beat us, you know, when they had when they didn't have their top player on the floor. So we were leery of that and we found that she wasn't fine. So we wish, you know, the speedy recovery because they're, you know, a different basketball team. They're still really good without her but with her you know, she takes them to another level.

Speaker 3

03:37

Coach you lead 44 to 18 and point and pain points. How much do players like Ashlyn and Camilla really help you control the pain especially in a dominant sec.

Speaker 2

03:45

Our pulse is, you know, it's probably like no other. I mean, we had Ashlyn and Fagan they got the bulk of the minutes tonight and on both sides of the basketball, they were able to impact the scoring. I thought Ashley did a great job. I know it's hard to. It's hard to guard. Right. It's hard. She's a hard guard. And I thought Ashlyn and he she she even dropped, I'm gonna drop to 6060 You know, easy job. 16. You know, I think if Ashton didn't play the type of effort on defense that she thought was that easily.

Speaker 1

04:26

We're on the perimeter. Just what did you see from your group navigating some of the screens and the DHS that they'll run specially to get a player like Haley Frank Open Office

Speaker 2

04:33

is hard because, you know, one action leads to another to another, they're just reading defenses and, you know, yes, they're playing these but, you know, they'll abandoned the plate. You know, if you know, the defense has a lapse we had, you know, probably very little lapses for probably three quarters. And that's pretty good for team like Missouri, like I expected us probably to give up to have maybe four or five of them throughout the course of this game. But I thought we just did a great job just scrambling and trying to get out and close out the content shots. Thank you so much. Thank you, everyone.
