Quotable
Head Coach Cathy Foto (on today's game)
"It was a hard-fought battle and a game of spurts. We started off very intense and had some great chances early. We could not get one on the board until Brash poked one in during a flurry late in the half. Lehigh came out strong to start the second half and we were on our heels at times. Amanda played great in goal again today and gave us the time we needed to get a second goal. Despite the challenges in the second half I was proud of how hard we competed for 70 minutes."
