Head Coach
Daniel Finn said, "Another day, another opportunity. Obviously, you don't wanna fall into a trap. Going into a tough match tomorrow after a big win on Wednesday. That's something the girls need to get used to though the schedule this season is littered with strong opponents weekend and week out in our big preaching point is just staying on focus on what's in front of you. Saint Leo always has a strong team you're in and you're out and the girls will be ready to compete again tomorrow."
