Daemen Women's Basketball Head Coach Jenepher Banker Quotes
February 5, 2021 – Roberts Wesleyan Postgame

On Mickayla Ivy's 21-point, 16-rebound performance...
"Yeah, you know, Mick works really, really hard all the time. Really, truly, in practice, [she] is always a really hard worker. And, this year when she came back, she really has been playing better and better and better. So the effort is always there. And now, I think she's just realizing all the things she can do, and she works hard. And like I said, we've been seeing that in practice all year long."

On Roberts Wesleyan's defensive strategy to sag off Ivy...
"Like I said, even all year long in practice, she's actually been shooting the ball really well, too. So, it was great, a great breakout game for her on the offensive end. She always works really hard on the defensive end and boards for us and that was just the next step. And you know, it's great to see."

On productivity off the bench during a key second quarter run...
"Yeah, [the] bench is huge. We know that regardless of the way the game is going, if the game is going well, we know that we can bring players in and keep that going. And we know for some reason, if things aren't going well, we also have players that can come in and help to change that. So we're really fortunate with with our bench and the players we can bring off our bench."

On staying focused while playing Roberts Wesleyan a second time this weekend...
"Well, Roberts is gonna come back, so we were gonna have to figure that out. We're gonna have to figure out what what we need to do differently and be ready for them because I know that they'll be ready on Sunday."
