In a press conference after the match, Murray said: (2:09 onwards)

"I'm really proud of her. She seems to be gaining her confidence and it's really fun to be a part of just because I think we give her some confidence, too. Like, we all believe in her and she trusts us in that. So, it's been really fun to see her grow the past few games, especially in the Creighton game and then this game she hit 400. So, I mean that's incredible and I'm really proud of her and I hope she continues to do that."
