QUOTES
Head Coach Jessica Kern

“I’m extremely proud of these young ladies. I really am. We’re playing a team that after tonight will probably be top 15 in the country. [They are] extremely well coached. They played extremely well. They have a hall of fame coach who I’m honored to coach across from. Our girls didn’t show up for about the first five minutes but when we turned it on we kept it on.”
