al basket to go into the locker with fl
j game tied at 40.
"In the first half in particular, I
iught Jenny did an outstanding from
j three-point line," Wilson said. "Shann
had some very nice passes breakl
the press so that took them out of
e press, so that couldn't be effective
them."
Randall, who finished with a career

praised the play of her teammates.
"My teammates did a really good job
getting me the ball," Randall said. ^jiJ|
he timing of their passes was crucial
me getting my shot off."

"The difference in the second half j I
as that our team did a better job dou- over Cj

gh post cutters," Wilson said. "It was
matter of having some defensive stops. BJm
ley did make some adjustments tonight

came to the last minute, we couldn't

the zone. Shannon made the smart Srnit

ree-point shooter.
"It (200th win) is a big treat. One of
