COACH’S COMMENTS
“… This week has been a tough one for our girls. On the road with a young team has its challenges but we had our chances to win all three. We are going to learn from our mistakes and get better. It’s still early and that’s what these games are for, to put us in situations that will help us come tournament time. We have to get ready for another tough week. Our girls work hard and we will continue to work to get better.”
It’s a team sport. Doesn’t matter how many one player scores if the team loses.
It’s gonna be that way for the next three years……
