Coach's Corner

When asked about today's result, Head Coach Daniel Finn had this to say, "Today took a full team effort to get this one. It came down to Katie in the end, and she got it done, but this one took everyone to get it to that point. Today was a very competitive match from start to finish. Flagler came out and bought a ton of energy, which is what we expected. A lot of credit to their team because they brought a ton of fight and kept coming after us the whole match, but I was proud of our girls and how we matched their intensity and energy to the end, which I believe was the difference for us today."

On the last point coming down to Visnevscaia, "I had no doubts that she would get it done. Katie is an extremely experienced player, and I had all the confidence in the world and in her to get the job done when it came down to her moment."

On his first win against Flagler, "I have a lot of respect for Coach Rod (Rodrigo Puebla) and his team at Flagler. I am always happy to get a quality win, especially on the road against the top-5 division II team."
