Post match comments by head coach Craig Jean, "It was a much needed first game for us. We have a lot of learning to do, especially formation, shape and tactics. Tonight was the first game played at any level for a good portion of our team. With that in mind, I thought they did a good job. We need to keep getting game experience and working on fundamentals at practice. Kristy Price, Abbey Acree and Morgan Davis stepped up and helped lead the team. The highlight of the night was having Ella King on the field. After what she has been through these last few months, it says a lot about her determination, courage and love for the sport. This game will definitely give us some good film to study to see what we need to improve on for DSA on Monday."
