“Even if they could see you…they couldn’t guard you!” he tweeted to her."I actually looked at our player development coach and I was like, 'I'm not fazed. I'm locked in.' That's what I said. So I was just, more than anything, locked in. And I looked right at her."She says the gesture was an extension of how she felt before the game.
She says bouncing back was thanks to the experience of the core group having played together for the last three years.
