THOUGHTS FROM HEAD COACH KAITLYN HAFDELL:
- Thoughts on today's game: "I think even though we did not come out on top, we still held our own against a ranked team."
- What are some key takeaways: "Our defense dominated once again. Continuing to step up with amazing caused turnovers and solid 1v1s."
- Thoughts on looking ahead to Bloomsburg: "Bloom is coming off of a high currently holding a 5-0 record. It's going to require a lot of focus and determination to be more fired up than they are at the first whistle, but I believe we have a really good team with a lot of talent. We are learning and continuing to improve with every game so I have no doubt we will bounce back and have a great game against Bloom!"
