On how the team's energy can compensate for inexperience: "It's going to speak volumes. What they lack in understanding, their energy will make up for. I told them when they don't give effort and they don't listen, that's when I get upset. They're going to make mistakes. They're freshmen, but they're learning and they're playing hard. I don't want to have to teach effort, and so far I haven't had to teach effort."
On who has emerged as a team leader: "Meme Jackson has stepped up; she's been consistent. I think Evina Westbrook has stepped up for her role as being a point guard. Cheridene (Green) and Rennia (Davis) have been vocal, so probably those four. More so Meme has probably been the front-runner.
On what she prioritizes with official practices starting: "We've got to make layups. We've got to make free throws. We've got to cut down on turnovers, and we've got to play solid defense. The rebounding aspect is huge. If we focus on those things, everything else will take care of itself."
