Quote
"We are getting better in some areas. It's about maintaining when we're playing at our best. In the first set, I felt like we did some good things, but we weren't able to maintain them throughout the match. We're dealing with some injuries that have caused us to realign some things. The girls are battling through that and through some adversity, and we're going to take that next step. We'll keep working." –Nichols head coach
John Post.
