THOUGHTS FROM COACH
"We didn't get the outcome we wanted today, but we are learning from our mistakes and moving forward. We played some great teams this weekend and we had some really good moments against them. We need to learn how to play as a team and finish strong at the end of every set. We start conference this coming weekend so we will be grinding in practice and working on our weaknesses we had from this tournament. This team has great potential and I'm excited to see how they grow every week."
