Coach's Corner
  • "It was a grind it out win at home, for sure. The things that we keep talking about, our defense, our rebounding, and our depth, all those strengths shined through tonight. Amber Souffrant was a huge spark and had a great night on both ends. Zhymani stuck with it and showed that she impacts the game in many ways, which yielded the double-double. Add in 10 rebounds from Sierra Georges and a near double-double from Xion Spence, and that's what got us there. It's back to work now, and on to Saturday out at LBC."                             - Head Coach Travis Ponton.
