Head Coach Kristina Llanes on the weekend:
"We are going into the weekend one game at a time. Right now, our focus on the little things is crucial. We played a sound game against Stetson and look to carry that momentum into Friday night's game against Howard. I am confident that our team will continue to come together against conference opponents. Both games are huge opportunities for us to get closer to making the tournament, and that is what we have been working hard for the entire season."
