Coach Thoughts

Kim Berrington, SHU: Concordia hit over 300 the first set and I thought we just kept hitting back and staying with them. I thought we were tougher once we hit 20 and pulled that first set out. I was impressed with how resilient we were in the third set when we were down 18-14. we just worked at the net. blocked well and had good defense that gave us good offensive chances. I was proud of the effort in that third set.
