Utah Forward Kalee Whipple:
"They are a great rebounding team. We knew that all but one of the five was going to rebound. So each time a shot went up, we had to find our player, check it out and get the board."
"When we want to do something, we are really good with focusing. We may not be big in numbers, but we are big in heart. We have good chemistry with each other."
"We talked about hustle plays during half time. That's what's going to win games: when we have hustle plays. When you're really trying, then those are big game winners right there."
"The streak is a great thing. We don't focus on it, like game-by-game, but it's a good feeling to know that you're continuing it. They are a great team to beat them out of the championship out right. It's a good feeling, but I know we have two games to go."
"I think everyone wants to beat us now. So the conference tournament is not going to be easy. We just have to go out there and keep playing our game. We're looking forward to it."
Utah Head Coach Elaine Elliott:
"This season has been a great experience, in terms of the games we have had and the things we have seen, different ways we've competed. We have come from behind with last-second wins. We have pretty much run the gamut in that regard, I think that keeps preparing us for more success."
"We have been down, dead in the water in some games, but we manage to keep playing and winning. It's been a pretty evident characteristic. There's not been a lot of nervousness or tightness. It's a pretty consistent passion."
"Winning's great. It feels good. That's what everyone wants in this business, so I have no complaints there. I'm so proud of this team."
"We are just going to keep playing and obviously we want to feel, when this is all over, that we have gone as far as we can. Whatever that is, we will find out."
"I don't like the word expectations... I just like the word capabilities. What I want is to make sure that we maximize those. They turned out to be pretty good to win us some games so far."
Wyoming Head Coach Joe Legerski:
"When you play a team as good as Utah, you really need to make more stops defensively. We didn't do as well as we hoped on defense today and that hurt us."
"I'm happy with the effort of our team. These were two top 25 teams and it was a very physical game."
"We needed our whole team to step up and make plays and it just didn't happen today."
"Hats off to Utah, they've won 20 games in a row and are deserving of all the accomplishments they've had this season."
