QUOTING HEAD COACH MEGAN MENZEL
“It was a really tough day for our team.  We did not finish, and it is disappointing. I take full credit for our poor performance this week.  We had three weeks to prepare and for whatever reason we were not ready.  As a coach, I need to do a better job to get them ready.  This team is better than this, and we need to bounce back and finish the fall with a strong showing in Atlanta.”
