Syracuse Player Quotes
Sophomore Vaida Sipaviciute
On coming off the bench:
“I feel more confident. I can score more points that way. I can see what the other team is doing a lot better as well and it has been working.”
On SU’s foul trouble:
“Coach (Cieplicki) told us not to foul shooters. We can’t give up shots like that. Most of the time we were fouling good shooters.”
Freshman Cintia Johnson
On defending Megan Duffy:
“Coach (Cieplicki) told me to face-guard her. Deny her from ever getting the ball. Megan Duffy is a great player. It wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. I had to play harder than she did and tougher than her. I tried to take away her ability to shoot. It was a confidence booster, her being a senior and me being a freshman.”
On SU’s foul trouble:
“I was very frustrated about us being in the double bonus. I couldn’t play up on Megan (Duffy) as hard as coach told me to. I was kind of frustrated that I had to step back and not push up on her as Coach Cieplicki told me to.”
