COMMENTS FROM COACH RUSSELL MACKEY

• Great team effort [on Friday]. Seven offensive players scored and assisted. Iyana Phelps played outstanding defense, helping us limit their leading scorer to only a couple of goals.
• We ended the game with all freshmen on defense. They have learned so much, and the leadership of the Captains and some other upper-class women has helped them improve dramatically.
