Head Coach John Sung

"I'm very pleased with how we played today with shooting over 50 percent. Margaux Giacotto played really well with 16 draw controls. She played really well with five goals on the day and two assists. Our defense was stellar tonight, today was the first time I've seen a defense hold a team to no shots in a game. We were really good at our redefend and again, I thought our draw controls were really good today. Excited to go into the Easter bye week. It's a good opportunity to give our team some to rest and enjoy some time with their family. I'm excited to finish up this season with our final four games. I think we can make a little bit of a run."
