Quotable
"Really tough match today against a very good Miami team. I thought we competed really well and put ourselves in actually a pretty good position towards the end of that match. The ladies are competing their tails off and getting better each match, and that's all that matters at this point in the season. We are excited to build on this one and get better again on Friday against a very strong UNF team. Shoutout to Che for getting her first collegiate win today against a very good player on the road."
