“We played our best ball of the season tonight and I don’t think we have peaked yet,” said Southampton Coach Chad Brock. “Everyone stepped up tonight.”
“I had some good information on the other team and made some assumptions on their playing style based on what I found,” Brock added. “I asked for some specific things from the girls and they delivered.”
