Box Score

DAYTON HEAD COACH Jim Jabir

"I thought we prepared well, but obviously we didn't. We weren't ready to in any way to play this game. We only had one day to prepare for this team. We thought we were sound in what we were doing. Our intensity level and our readiness just wasn't there."

On the Temple's post defense

"They frustrated Cara (Wright). They frustrated all of us. We shot 37 percent for the game and 16 in the second half. That's not just Cara, you can't blame her. I thought we were ready to play, but obviously we weren't. That's on me."

On Dayton's offensive performance

"They (Temple) were very physical and very athletic. We need to work harder to get the ball into the post. Sometimes we aren't a very good passing team and I wanted us to attack the basket more and drive to the hoop."
