Game Summary
We started out really strong tonight with an 8-0 run and then went a little cold from the field. We really picked it up offensively in the second half tonight. We did a good job of taking care of the ball and i thought our defense played pretty well, they have a great player in Hali Langkrahr and she hurt us most of the night but i thought we played solid defense on her. It is always going to be a tough tight game with Concordia, that's what makes it a rivalry.
