College Park, Md. (XFINITY Center)
#6 Maryland 101, IUP 56
Head Coach Brenda Frese
Opening statement:
"I liked how we came out early and how we were ready to play. I thought we were really aggressive and set the tone with our defense. IUP played really hard, every look they had they were able to knock down. There are definitely some things we have to improve on defensively, but was a solid game for us to be able to build upon with it being our second exhibition game."
On Maryland's defense:
"I think we've got to play harder. Their offense was more perimeter oriented so they could all shoot the basketball. Our ball pressure could improve. There's a lot of things we'll be able to show on film."
On Maryland's rebounds in the first and second halves:
"We talked about the amount of 3's they had in the first half and how long shots were going to be long rebounds. I think we definitely made a better effort in the second half in terms of boxing out and going and getting the ball."
Junior Guard Shatori Walker-Kimbrough
On role within the team:
“I take it game by game. Just being able to provide my teammates with what they need. If they need me to score then I have to score. If they need me to find the open man then I find the open man. If they need me to defend I will defend the best player. I take it game by game instead of predicting what I need to do.”
Junior Forward Brionna Jones
On the team's fast start:
“I think we just went with the flow and found the open man. It happened to be me in the beginning of the first half.”
