"Of course I was a little nervous there, not going to lie, it was a little hit and miss, but, I just felt confident," Molly Miller said. "I just felt confident with this team on the court. It was just staying true and loyal to our identity and brand.
"We know that this is a good basketball team, and we know what we're capable of. When things didn't go our way, we could have crumbled. But I've got senior leadership. I've got veteran kids that won't give up. They had a look in their eye.

Miller further had a warning for future Grand Canyon opponents during March Madness, despite this being the Antelopes' first foray into the NCAA Tournament in their history.

"We're going to keep the status quo," Miller said. "Whatever we're going to do, we're going to do it because we're going to knock off a few teams in the tournament, and this team out of anyone can do it. I'm so excited to go to the Big Dance and even put some more eyes on GCU women's basketball."

According to SB Nation analyst Mitchell Northam, Molly Miller, who has a 114-37 record in her five-year tenure at Grand Canyon, is a candidate for the Arkansas Razorbacks and the Arizona State Sun Devils jobs.
