Head Coach, Jaycee Barnhurst responded to the team's win with words of enthusiasm, " Today's game was a hard-fought team win. The girls worked their hearts out together and were successful. They bounced back from the loss yesterday and showed that we are a top team in the state with an opportunity to play for the 5th spot tomorrow morning.
