Heidi Ilustre added eight digs while Jennifer Carey totaled 24 assists and seven digs. Hawaii hit .250 in the match as a team.
?We got beat pretty good tonight and Hawaii is a good team,? said Launiere. ?They played very well against us tonight and I think they?ve got a legitimate shot at being back at the Final Four in two weeks. We had a really good season and I?m proud of our kids for coming together the way they did. We talked about this being our second year we?ve made it to this round and I think our team is starting to understand what this is really about now. I think we?re ready to think about what we need to do to take it to the next level. I think it?s neat that we got here (NCAAs) because it?s a huge learning experience for these kids to realize that we got here two years in a row and to also look forward to what is next. We exceeded all of our expectations and it was a great year for us.?
