Coach Zelenock on the First Day of CofC Invitational
"I thought we came out ready to play today and that is something we have struggled with so far in the season. It's great to see consistency with some of our players like Sharlissa and Sumerlyn. We would have liked to win that match but as a coaching staff, we are proud that the team is executing what we are teaching them at practice."
