Recap |  Final Stats

Head coach Jon Wallace

On getting the win two days after a tough loss
"This win helped us a lot emotionally, to be able to come back and to play steady and win. Probably even more so was the feeling on the court, that the girls found a rhythm that they're going to try to grab onto. I think the girls are excited and got a little more life back in them."

On Anna Cmaylo's performance
"Anna gave the whole team life, when she's hitting that well everybody thinks they are better out there, she just that type of player. "She took the team on her back and said `I'm going to play great tonight.'"

Middle blocker Anna Cmaylo

On beating Pepperdine
"It wasn't an ultimatum as much as it was that we just played the way we know how to play. We were at home, and we were all upset about it, and we came back and we were ready to play today."

On how the win helps give the Broncos momentum
"Coming off of this win, we know what it feels like when we're playing together, and we know what we have to do to replicate this feeling."

Libero Caroline Walters

On bouncing back to beat Pepperdine
"We knew what we had to do and we came out and took care of it, just like we did last year against Pepperdine in the Sweet 16. We didn't feel like we had any pressure on us, we just went out there and played.

On keeping the winning ways going next weekend
"Going into Portland and Gonzaga, we have to re-focus on our ultimate goals, really stick with it, and hopefully come out with a couple of wins."
