QUOTE OF THE GAME
"Air Force is a quality team that played a great, hard-fought match. We had to earn everything. I'm proud of the girls for staying the course, even though we didn't score in the first half when we had some really good chances, and it paid off. We made a couple of minor adjustments at half, but the girls pushed through and then weathered the storm at the end. I thought we locked it down pretty well tonight, very happy with the effort and result." - Head Coach Paul Jobson
