"Our girls are playing very well through 6 matches this season. We're resilient and learning to problem-solve and decision-making. Five set matches are great tests and with such a competitive conference, learning to play for that length of time is going to serve as well as we move into late September and October. This upcoming weekend will be a fun test, can't wait to see what we do." Says Coach Emma Celentano.
