COACH'S QUOTE
"Really pleased with our defense," said Head Mayer Women's Basketball Coach Alisa Kresge. "Holding a team to three quarters of single digit scoring is impressive at any level. Offense was slow in the first half, but in the second half I thought we finally found our rhythm, playing team basketball. We need that spark off the bench and I felt Andjela did a great job coming off the bench and giving us that spark."
