WHAT THE TEAM IS SAYING:
Following the win over Seton Hall…
"What can we say about Camryn Taylor, coming off the bench to get and-ones and dominate the paint. I'm just really proud of her and the rest of our team today, it was real fun to watch from the sidelines. I think we are continuing to form a toughness about ourselves. That discipline we need on Sundays, especially when everybody is a little bit tired from the quick turnaround. We keep talking to our team about staying the course, being who we are, and today we had some different people step up, which has helped lead us to success."
