Head Coach John Sung

"I'm very pleased with the way we played today with us coming to North Carolina for spring break. I thought we got on the field and performed really well. Elizabeth Oda had seven goals, a career-high for her, so it was really fun to watch her out there and compete today. We had a lot of good play from our attack, we played as a unit which is really fun to see them play together. Emma McDonald got her first college goal which was really big for her getting comfortable on the field and our system. We played everyone today which was really good to get everyone in and get some experience. We were really good at doing the little things today and I think it showed in our performance."
