Quote from the Coach:
"Our girls have proven time and again that they are able to pull off some decent victories. Although I'm very proud of the way they were able to persevere against a really good Point team who presented a strong fight throughout the entire match, we still have a lot to work on in order to solidify our foundation and truly play as a team. That is our culture and I will continue to preach that to them. Regardless, we finished tonight with a win and were able to take yet another step in the right direction. To God goes all the glory and I look forward to Saturday's matchup vs. St. Andrews!"
