The more I think about this game, the more I recognize that our women were warriors last night.  They faced down the adversity of being roughed up by an aggressive opponent in the face of inconsistent or non-existent ref'ing, red hot 3 point shooting by their opponent, and a road game in a hostile environment on a distracting custom painted court.  They lost a 15 point lead and found themselves 5 points down with just a few minutes to play.  But, they never stopped fighting.  They dove for loose balls.  They didn't whine about uncalled fouls.  They didn't lose their composure.  They kept fighting to the end.  This wasn't a beauty contest of a game, it was a battle.  And, our warriors prevailed.
