South Carolina Head Coach Susan Walvius
“One of the things we are working on with our younger perimeter is trusting each other, moving the ball and shifting the defense.”
“I thought Buffalo did a great job today. We played offense for a small portion of this game, and we played defense for the long part of game unless we they were in transition. I thought they did a great job controlling the flow of the game. They dictated the tempo.”
“Two years ago, we would have lost this game, to be quite honest. We are able to shoot on the outside. Courtney [Newton] was able to shoot the ball and we were able to put up some high-low looks from post to post. I wasn’t happy with the defense; we were a step slow today. We would have not put up 66 points two years ago against this Buffalo defense.”
On Kelly Morrone:
“The world needs more Kelly Morrones. She was a great catalyst and a constant reminder of why we were playing.”
