Coach Abrahamson-Henderson
On Dani Carnegie, Mia Woolfolk and Trinity Turner's influence…
"To me, they are a three-headed monster. I mean, they really are. We've got to keep them healthy, we've got to keep them focused. And I like the fact that we can play everybody, because they need some breaks here and there. And it's usually always going to be one of those three that is the leading scorer. Right now, it's really hard to guard us if we bring the people off the bench and now they're scoring. So I like the fact that everyone can score on our team, so it's going to really open them up more. I mean, they're really, really good."
On Coach Abe's confidence in the team's defensive performance…
"Obviously, we're trying to get our feet wet defensively. We always try to have some — at least one or two — single-digit quarters, and we did in the third quarter and we just really liked it. Mia said it; they locked into our game plan today. The coaches actually know what they're doing. The opposing coach is a really good coach. He's a seasoned coach. I've known him for years; he's a great man. We just made really good adjustments at halftime with how they play, but I am pretty proud of the team. And we didn't just do it with three people, we did it with everybody. Everybody came in defensively and locked in and did what they were supposed to do. So that's great and obviously we've got to keep it going."
What's Next
- The Georgia Lady Bulldogs will compete against the North Florida Ospreys this Thursday at Stegeman Coliseum. Tipoff is set for 6:30 p.m. and is available for streaming on SECN+.
