"There's an expression: the sign of a good team is a team that can not play at its best and still get a result. We are real close to being a good team. We battled hard today, but we didn't have much left in the gas tank after Friday's game. We need to clean up our entry passes so we can put ourselves into more advantageous positions on the field to score," says Head TU Women's Soccer Coach,
Julie Orlowski. "It was a hard fought battle for the girls and they are coming together as a team, which is exciting to see this close to conference play."
