COACH GARLACY'S COMMENTS 
"Our pins really performed well tonight on both sides of the ball.  Fabi and Arianna hit hard and mixed in some great toolbox shots too.  Carrina played hard nosed defense, served tough and passed consistently. Carolina continues to set the standard on the court with her intensity on defense, serving rockets and running our offense. The senior leadership really put us over the top tonight."
