COACH’S COMMENTS
“… We struggled early in the game to get going. We finally was able to make some separation in the third quarter. Now onto Magoffin on Thursday night. We’ve told the girls one game at a time so that’s what we’re doing. We will get back in the gym tomorrow and and get ready for Magoffin. Very proud of the girls effort tonight.”
