Coaches Quote
"Hats off to Central Maine- they put together an excellent 90 minutes. We just couldn't find a rhythm in the attacking third, and got away from what we do best in the build from the back. I know we will finish strong as we begin to prepare for a conference tournament run." – Head Coach Ethan Wells
Looking Ahead
The women's action continues at the YSCC Quarter Finals on Saturday, Oct. 22. Seeding and match-ups will be determined at start of next week.
