They play hard, they work hard, they take a lot of pride in their program. It was a really great win for our team today. We knew it was going to be a battle all the way to the end, and we knew they would go on runs and put a lot of pressure on our defense, so I thought we handled it. Our offense gave us a little bit of a cushion in the first half, and I wasn't happy that we lost that a little bit in the second half. Taylor Moreno had some unbelievable saves, and overall it was a team win."
