I think there's a tendency to believe that you pick up where you left off, but it doesn't work that way. Even with a lot of the same players back, it's a different team, with new coaches and some new ideas. Like most teams, we need some time to pull it together.
We did what we needed to do. Zumwalt West really came at us, especially in that first half. Our girls really felt pressured for the first time this season, and I thought we responded fairly well.... I thought we worked hard and got a win against a good opponent.
