WHAT THEY'RE SAYING
"Right now, if we play like we did Wednesday (against Notre Dame) we can compete with a lot of teams. They've got an outside hitter (Wyatt) who is a very good athlete and great jumper. Their middle (Cooley) runs a really good quick and they have a string of good hitters. They like to serve aggressively. We just have to play our game and take care of our side of the net and get our serves going.. We have to play great defense like we did the other nights and stay aggressive with our serves." -- Holy Trinity head coach Melissa Freesmeier
