Game Summary
I was very pleased to see our girls come out strong tonight and make a run early. I thought our defense did a really nice job of applying pressure and our offense did a great job of moving the ball to the open person. We got a lot of girls in tonight and it was good to see some of them step up and play well. This was a big conference win for us and hopefully we can keep things going Friday against Concordia.
