Says it was great to have all of these wonderful things happen for her team and obviously these things don't happen without working hard.

Says winning COY is always about the team but what will separate this team from her others is everything they've been through having to switch conferences and things like that.

Says it's exciting to see sophomores get these honors and it's great for the program and the future of the team.

Says Brionna Jones has been huge with her double-doubles and rebounding coming into the season was a concern but this team has really bought into what they wanted to do defensively.

Honors come when you put in hard work, but the biggest part for the coaching staff is keeping the team grounded.

Says this team is wired with a business-like mentality, going through Final Four last year and playing in the types of venues they have has really helped them get to where they are.

Getting the double-bye is huge because you want fresh legs and want to be at your best this time of year.

Says winning COY doens't happen without surrounding yourself with a great staff and recruiting great players.

Even though they didn't have a B1G Player of the Week, it shows just how good they are and how much they played as a team to have four players earn All-B1G honors.

Says that while they might not have shown it on the court following the Northwestern game, they were like kids in a candy store in the locker room knowing they had clinched the B1G title.

Says this is the deepest the league has been, having coaches in the league and watched it for years. Says it's very uptempo and fast pace now and every team gave them their best shot this year.

This team is highly motivated and driven and wants to win the B1G tourney.

Says it's big for both the men's and women's programs to put Maryland on the map nationally and to see both teams in the Top 10 today is tremendous. Knows how hard Turgeon and the men have worked and it's something they are extremely proud of.
