Coach's Corner
When asked about today's result, Head Coach Daniel Finn had this to say: "Happy with the performance today. I thought the girls did a great job today coming out focused from the start and taking care of business throughout the match. We made some good adjustments and settled into the matches today and played well top to bottom. Tournaments like this are extremely tough, going multiple days back-to-back, so anytime you can play well and get on and off the court, It's a huge bump. We'll try to take advantage of that today and get some rest and recover for another test tomorrow."

Up Next
