“We had won six games in this league in large part because we played really good defense. We didn't have the same type of presence or assertiveness on Sunday.”
Frank Haith
“We expected a tight, defensive game; we know them and they know us. Defensively, I thought we played well tonight and that's what got us the win.”
Charlie Elmendorf
“It was really a good defensive game, at the net as well as in the back row. Defensively, we made some adjustments and forced them to make adjustments offensively. I was very pleased with that. They hit hard line a couple times and we adjusted and dug that up. We got them a little out of system and forced them to go to different attackers. (Penn's) defense was a little better.”
Jacquie Rost
“All you can ask is that the kids play hard and play a good defensive game. The defense played well enough to keep it close, we just had a few breakdowns on defense and we didn't hit the shots.”
Chris Garvin
“The players first said how embarrassed they were with the type of defensive game they played tonight. Our defense keeps us in games and wins us ball games, keeps us close. We just got out of a rhythm from the start.”
Cathy Inglese
“She played a great defensive game. We all played great defense, it was our best defensive game of the year. We only made one error, and it didn't cost us.”
Dave Dunham
“She's (Strickland) come on so well defensively the last few games. She plays super defense, did a good job on the (Erica) Rivera (at Pasquotank County) girl and a good job up in Hickory, and she moves her feet well, and she hit some big shots.”
