COACH’S COMMENTS
“… I thought we forced them into some turnovers early but got into foul trouble and had to pull back a little. We only have one girl with varsity experience so it was a little rocky early on for us. We put them on the line way to much in the first half with silly reach in fouls. Give Rose Hill credit they played smarter then us and kept driving to the basket. I would rather have to reign them in then get in the girls for not being aggressive enough.”
“… Sarah Jude played well she is so long and such a great athlete she was first team all state volleyball this year. She is our leader and stepped up tonight.”
“… Excited for this weekend for the BJM tournament we have a good field. Cameron will be in the running for the farthest traveled and are a good team. Should be very competitive with all four teams with a chance to win it. We will have our hands full with Grace Christian Friday night.”
