"It was time for us to get on the floor and see where we are right now. The lack of experience did show last night as our consistency was lacking, however I was very pleased with how we responded to the difficulties. We seemed to keep our cool and get right back in the fight. I know that we will take these games as a starting point and begin our work to improve in every outing," said Coach Robin Van Laeys.
