KEY QUOTES
Co-Head Coach Ryan Roberts
On Friday’s road win…
“This team is very resilient, so coming down to that last routine is huge, especially in the postseason. Ja’ Free [Scott] came in and hit that routine like she did, and it always comes down to those quarter tenths in postseason, so I was really proud of that. Overall, time and time again, they’ve been stepping up. If someone has to step in because of an injury or a change in the lineup, they keep going forward. I’m very impressed and very excited for this team moving forward.”
