Utah Head Coach Elaine Elliott
"I am not surprised that this game went down to the wire. It is a very good New Mexico team, all of the top teams are good and competitive and you have to tough it out through the end."
"The last nine were great it was a situation where you are forced into getting a foul instead of getting a shot off. They are a tough team to defend because they have many weapons to go to and it could go anywhere."
"We handled the zone very well so they didn't have the option of going to the zone and slowing us down. The bottom line is that Morgan really penetrated it well, she took over and that was key."
"It is really hard to try and get another conference title. When it comes down to it, it just perpetuates itself and you want to win it again. We didn't play the same system that we played last year so to give these kids credit we have been able to play two different systems in two years and have a share of the title."
Senior Guard Morgan Warburton
"I was just really proud of how our team played, we stuck in there and did some mental things on defense and gutted it out and I am really proud."
"I knew something had to happen in the second half and I figured it could be some of the seniors and whoever else wanted to step up. I am really proud to be a part of this team and have another chance at the conference title. I don't want to share it at all and I don't think anyone else on this team wants to either."
New Mexico Head Coach Don Flanagan
"I thought that we played quite well. (Morgan) Warburton is a load to guard and, obviously, (Kalee) Whipple is too. We did our best. I thought we played good defense and we created problems for them. We made some adjustments and did a nice job defensively. We just didn't make the last shot."
"They made some big shots. They made some shots and I thought we did a nice job too. Our offense was pretty darn good. They played good defense. I mean, it was a heck of a game. It was a great game."
