Coach's Corner
"Great effort today from the ladies," commented head coach Daniel Finn. "We did a good job of controlling ourselves and not worrying about the conditions around us. The ladies are starting to hit their stride here and this is a really important time of the year to be doing that. So as a coach I am very happy to be at that point."
