COACH'S QUOTE
"Maine is a very talented team that can put up numbers and disrupt tendencies. Our players were hungry for another opportunity to execute a game plan and beat another talented team," said Mayer Women's Head Coach Alisa Kresge. "We are at the point in the season, where it's no regret mentality and we keep showing up, which is really important for us right now. We are working on still being very disciplined, even keeled and hungry. Every team can win in this league, and we can't look ahead and must stay focused."
