“Today was a great start to the tournament for us,” said head coach Taylor Fogleman. “The conditions were reasonably tricky today, and I think our group handled it quite well for the most part. We were efficient in handling business, which is always helpful in a tournament format like this. There are certainly some things we can clean up and do better, but I thought the girls put forth a lot of good energy today. We’ll need even more of that tomorrow as we take on a very good Tennessee team that we saw just this past weekend, and we’re looking forward to that opportunity.”
