[The Winning Difference @thewinningdiff1]

“All year we have been saying the talent is our floor but our character will determine our ceiling.
And I am just so confident in their character, and that’s what determined how they played today.”

Talent makes you comparable.
Character makes you unforgettable.

Samford has a chance to be *really* good next season. Foundation was set this year and they’re returning some great talent.

[Sally Higgins @12Higgins]

Hard not to root for @CoachCoriClose & how she leads. Have learned so much in listening to her talk about the process!

[Nikki Kay @NikkiKaySN1]

4 years ago @UCLAWBB let me spend a day with the team
I learned that at the end of every practice
@CoachCoriClose has players write their "Went Wells" in a journal- documenting what *went well* during the session.
At the start of this tourney I asked Coach about her went wells for 2026
