Coach's Corner
Head Coach Daniel Finn said, "This was a tough loss to take today. I'll give credit to Barry as they gritted this one out in the end but it's tough to lose like this when we had our opportunities to win. In the end, there's a reason why Barry is the defending champs but with today's performance, the girls were able to see the level they can play. We're still having to make some adjustments and improve in certain areas but we're making the steps in the right direction. This team has a very high ceiling and we have to keep pushing if we want to get there. The schedule doesn't get easier from here though. We have less than a week to prepare for a tough test next week against West Florida and Xavier."
