“The girls played excellent the first game,” said coach Yoneko Washington. “We served and executed well. In the last two games, though we won, we lost focus and made many mental mistakes. I am excited about the win, but I can't wait until our next practice, so we can continue to prepare mentally and improve on our overall skills.
“I am proud of the ladies for persevering. Though things may have gotten tough and it may not have been as pretty as we would have liked it to be, we still pulled out the victory.”
