Jill, can you just talk about this
being your last game?
JILLIAN HARMON: I don't know how -- it's
been a great four years. I couldn't have asked
more. The best coaches in the world. Best
teammates. To have it come to an end is a bit
surreal. I was balling my eyes out in the locker
room not because we lost the game but because I
can't play with these ladies again. But I know
they'll come back next year and hopefully be at the
Final Four and hopefully I'll be here to watch.

Can you just reflect on the whole
season? You lost your best player, Candice
Wiggins, to graduation, lost your point guard
but yet you made it to the semifinal game. And
even though this was a bad loss, at this point
can you put it all in perspective?
COACH VANDERVEER: I mean,
Connecticut is a terrific team. One of the
disappointments that I had was as soon as I
looked at the bracket -- in some ways it's like, I
mean, I really feel like we could compete on a
really good basis with the other two teams that
were here, whether it's Oklahoma. But
Connecticut was head and shoulders above us
tonight.
And what I wanted to make sure with our
team was this one game in some ways did define
us but in some ways it did not define us.
The best thing that happened was the fact
that when things were not going our way, our kids
really -- they stayed with things really well. They
competed. They weren't sniping at each other.
They didn't have excuses when they came to the
bench.
I was so proud of that. Now, it was very
difficult. We didn't do some of the things that we
needed to do or we wanted to do.
But we've really grown up a lot this
season. And to have Jayne in there. She really
was an All-American in how she kept demanding
the ball. Totally getting bodied out and stayed with
things really well.
We have a very, very young team and we
do not have the guard leadership that Connecticut
had. I thought Jeanette filled in really well, but
there were times tonight when we just didn't have
the let's set things up and let's run things that we
needed.
But for the whole season, for our team to
be playing in the Final Four with what we've been
through, I'm exceedingly proud. I just can't even --
I have to pinch myself, say, We're in the Final
Four. And I just think that our team will build on
this experience and it will set in that, wow, you get
here, and we want to do better.
