I really want to get excited and be able to support her when I see the locker room after wins. But I have to remember what I saw during the first half of last season on my favorite NFL team, when a win would occur. That coach's mentality was also, "trust the program", even though it didn't work the season before and wasn't working last season. A crappy loss is what got him fired, midway through. But the owner of that team cared about the product on the field, the fans and the revenue.

The last play was designed for CC. The thinking was that Clark would be open in the far corner, Samuelson passes to her - 3 point shot.
