Coach Llanes on the Team's Game Against Stetson
»    "We knew going in it was going to be a hard fought battle and were ready for the physical play. Our offensive unit was confident with the ball tonight and were able to get the shots off we needed, but placement was slightly off. Defensively, Elaine was solid, composed and stepped up big with her saves. I'm proud of tonight's performance and the fight our team showed."
