QUOTING HEAD COACH MARK BATMAN
"I thought we played very well, especially in the second half. We made a little mentality change at halftime and the girls responded. We played some new kids in some different roles today and are pleased with what we saw. I think it shows that things are competitive. I've very happy we got a win to cap off Senior Day. Kaema got the winning goal, Agnes (Stenlund) got a shutout and Alli Macbeth played great. I'm very happy with our performance today."
