North coach Susie Runaas quotes

* "We went to a half-court defense in the second half (rather than full-court pressure) and that was key for us in the third quarter. It allowed us to set up our jumps and traps."

* (On Kayla Tetschlag) "This is a young lady, to the right of me (at the post-game interview table); I can't say enough about her."

* (More on Tetschlag) "We're definitely a team, but when you talk about Kayla Tetschlag's ability to play, she's just the total package. She's just one of those players you need to see to appreciate."

* (On tonight's opponent, Milwaukee Vincent) "I can honestly say, we have not faced an opponent like that. It's going to be a matter of mental toughness. Who wants it more. Our girls have played from the heart all year."

* (On North's boys' winning) "It's a good-bad problem. I think the (North) fans will make their choice (as to which team they'll go watch) but we definitely support (the boys) and they support us."
