<p class="MsoNormal">Michelle Lenard on the game … <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">“Outside of the first few minutes, where I thought we were unsettled and they had us under a lot of pressure, I though overall we played really well. We had a lot of good opportunities of our own. I thought the
brand of soccer that we played was really positive, we got on the ball, we created through the midfield, we created attacking opportunities, we got in the box and got shots off. I really feel like we are trending in the right direction. Still, we have got
to find a way to put the ball in the back of the net and we didn’t, but today we out-shot our opponent, we put more shots on frame and it’s against one of, if not the best team in the Big 12 right now, and we are playing here at their place. So, really happy
with the overall performance. It’s not the outcome we want of course, but trending in the right direction and I think we can build off of that.”</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
