"It was really good to see a victory on our home field, the girls have been working hard, and it's great to see the things we have been working on at practice to be paid off. I'm proud of them, especially seeing that Soph get her first college goal. I know everyone is working hard outside of practice, so it's great to see things finally paying off in the games. We're ready to get back to work and prepare for Anderson this weekend."
