Head Coach Jim Jabir
"I was pleased with our effort tonight. I was very worried about this game. Loyola is a much improved team and they play really hard. They remind me of Miami and that's what scared me. We played well offensively and our defense was good. We focused. We were 21-of-23 today from free throw range. That's really good."

"(Justine) Raterman makes me look really good. She's a great kid, wants to be a great player. She can shoot. She can step out. The fact that she can do both is great. I'm really lucky to have her on this team. She's a big time player."

"We came out really focused and we just wanted to work hard and get this win. I have to give a lot of credit to my teammates who got me the ball to me and got me open. Scoring 27 points wouldn't have happened without them."

"My versatility is one of my main strengths. If I have a big person on me I can bring them out and shoot and drive. If they try to put a guard on me I can go down low. That's one of the major strengths of my game."

"This win was really important it gave everyone a lot of confidence. Especially to play as a team before we go home for Christmas."
