“This game was everything I expected to be,” Mikle said. “I was not expected to be below 14 points, but they fight back as usual. They always play an important role in helping the coaches to change things to try to keep them away from the balance. The girls finally pulled out on their own. They did a great job and it means everything for me because I am very happy for them.”

Mikale said, “We had to go to the man (after 3S of O’Conel).” “We swung on different zones and found them just ways to hit them, so we were forced to come out and actually just closed. We just had to work hard and control the boards. ,

Bruce took better care of the ball, one turnover in the third quarter and four in the second half.
