COACH MICHELLE LENARD - ON REBOUNDING FROM THE ST. EDWARD'S LOSS
"I think last week, we came out a little flat and a little intimidated by the circumstances. This week, the key at practice was to refocus and just take it one game at a time. I think we lost focus of that last week. This week was simply about preparing for this game. Preparing, focusing and doing the best we could on the day and coming out and playing our soccer, regardless of who our opponent is. We had a hard week at practice. We went after each other a little bit. I thought we showed that tonight. I thought the girls were confident, and they were running at players and taking chances and taking risks. It paid off this week what we did in practice."
