Quotes from Oregon State head coach Judy Spoelstra:
"We just needed to work harder and keep our focus. The players came out and responded, playing more aggressive. We got some great effort from our bench and tightened up our defense."
"It felt like it was a close game down to the wire, even though we were up by twelve. When you are playing a team like UCLA, it always seems like you're only up four or five."
"I was really proud of our team today, they showed good intensity. Down the stretch we wish we had more time to move the ball up the court. Give UCLA credit for putting pressure on us late."
"USC has played some really good games already. They like to shoot the three-ball and are a team that can really go off on you. It will be a challenge, but we know our players are ready for it."
