HOUND BYTES
Initial thoughts on the win from head coach Elaine Jones...
"I was very pleased with our team's effort and intensity. It's never easy playing back-to-back games, but I thought the players rose to the challenge and I love the way they responded."
Jones' thoughts on the offensive and defensive performances of her team...
"On offense, I was really happy with the variety of scorers involved and the balance of goals and assists. We didn't shoot well versus Walsh yesterday so that was one area we knew we had to fix. The defense communicated well as a cohesive unit and turned in a stellar performance."
Jones on Malcolm scoring 10 points this afternoon...
"Quinn did a great job facilitating our attack while also being a threat both feeding and scoring the ball."
