Coach Poston's Thoughts
"The women fought hard all day long. Fighting back every single time they got down. They have nothing to hang their heads about. A couple untimely breaks and very fortunate breaks for our opponent was the difference. I was proud of their grit and their fight, not only in this tournament but all season long."
