As noted, this game was a big deal to Arizona. The Arizona Daily Star had a good sized write up about it, linked below. And about two-thirds of the way down, Adia Barnes has some nice words about Tara.

Thanks to the link to the article. I found Barnes' comment very interesting, and particularly noted the bits about Dawn Staley and Tara -- that she singled them out and said not everyone was that way. Tara has a reputation of being supportive of other, especially women, coaches. She and Staley have a history together as well, from when Staley was the starting PG on the 1996 Olympic team that Tara coached -- I seen many very respectful and positive comments about Staley from Tara over the years.
