TOP QUOTES
Joey Scrivano on the day…
“I’m just really proud of the ladies. They bounced back really well today. Yesterday was an opportunity to learn, and today (they) just responded so well. Our freshmen are growing quite a bit, you can see. Olivia (Malm) had a really strong week. She has made some really big strides. A.C. (Ana Carmen Zamburek) really battled here in this last match, and I’m really proud of her growth as well. The entire team is doing great, the culture is really healthy and good things are coming our way. We’re excited about the upcoming events this fall.”
